Abstract

A new and exciting numerical approach to solving two-dimensional potential problems is obtained by use of the Cauchy integral equation for analytic functions. The resulting integral equation is readily solvable by computer, and produces a pair of two-dimensional conjugate harmonic functions which satisfy the Laplace equation over the problem domain.
