I have done relatively few in physics courses and I need to re-learn how to do some flux integrals for constant vector fields through rectangular and circular surfaces.

If anyone has any direction to some great resources, or themselves could be a great resource for help please post what are you got. Just try not to be too over my head (if that's even possible with multivariable calculus).. thanks ahead of time.

This is much too general a question. Perhaps if you were to post specific problems we could help.
