Solution of Laplace's equation in plane single-connected regions bounded by arbitrary single curves

A method is developed to solve Laplace's equation with Dirichlet's or Neumann's conditions in plane, single-connected regions bounded by arbitrary single curves. It is based on the existence of a conformal transformation that reduces the original problem to another whose solution is k...

Sumario:A method is developed to solve Laplace's equation with Dirichlet's or Neumann's conditions in plane, single-connected regions bounded by arbitrary single curves. It is based on the existence of a conformal transformation that reduces the original problem to another whose solution is known. The main advantage of the method is that it does not require the knowledge of the transformation itself, so it is applicable even when no transformation is available. The solution and its higher-order derivatives are expressed in terms of explicit quadratures easy to evaluate numerically or even analytically. © 1990 American Institute of Physics.
