The vector normal can be found as the vector product of S and the unit vector in the third global coordinate direction, out of the plane of the solution domain

In order to integrate round the boundary it is necessary to change from global co-ordinate to local
intrinsic co-ordinate within each element, by means of the Jacobian of transformation

This Jacobian can also be used to define the components of the unit normal

Introducing the transformation from global to intrinsic co-ordinate, the boundary integral equation,
Equation 2.29, becomes
