Title: A transform method for Laplace's equation in multiply connected circular domains
Authors: Crowdy, DG
Item Type: Journal Article
Abstract: A new general transform method for the solution of mixed boundary value problems for Laplace’s equation in multiply connected circular domains is formulated. Circular domains are those with boundaries that are a union of circular arcs and/or straight line segments. Constructive schemes based on the method are showcased by application to some concrete problems in fluid mechanics. In particular, a boundary value problem of topical interest in the study of superhydrophobic surfaces is solved and compared with an existing numerical solution.
