Partial derivative "evaluated at" value

Post by ccrummer »

I want to show the "evaluated at" value at the right of a vertical line but I don't know how to place it at the bottom of the line.

$$ \vec{\tau} = \mu {{\partial{\vec{u}} \over \partial{y}}\vline_{y = 0}}. $$

The "y = 0" typesets too high.

Thanks

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

You better use correct LaTeX syntax for typesetting math expressions.

Code: Select all

\[
  \vec{\tau}=\mu\,\frac{\partial\vec{u}}{\partial y}\bigg|_{y=0}
\]
Take a look into lshort, l2tabu and "Math mode".
