Surface area vector

Hello every one .
What is the Surface Area vector form in exterior algebra ,I mean by that the Surface Area vector as an exterior form in 3D , just like the volume form .


THANKS

 

yes its a 2-forms , but 2-form is a co-variant second order tensor , but here the surface area is a vector ,
this is why i want to know ,
in mechanics the stress distribution formula is [itex] F^i = \sigma^\ij dA_j [/itex]
where F is the force vector and (Sigma ) is the mechanical second order stree tensor and A is the Area vector
while in exterior algebra it's written like this [itex] F^i = T^i_jk dx^j\wedgedx^k [/itex]
where T is a third order tensor , when using calculus e.g. co-variant derivative , sigma with give 2 christoffel symbols while the T will give 3 christoffel symbols

 

[itex] F^i =\sigma^ij dA_j [/itex]
[itex] F^i= B^i_j_k dx^j \wedge dx^k [/itex]

 

you mean [itex] dA_i = \epsilon_ijk dx^j \wedge dx^k [/itex]

 

[itex] dA^i = \epsilon _{ijk} dx^j \wedge dx^k [/itex]
