Milan Batista

Short summary

A novel composite conformal mapping method creates a plane with two holes, where one boundary is controlled by an exterior map and the second is nearly circular.

Key points

  • Develops a composite conformal mapping for an infinite plane with two holes.
  • One boundary is determined by a chosen exterior map, the second is nearly circular.
  • Method is applicable when the exterior map is available in Laurent series form.
  • Illustrates applications in solving harmonic potential problems (heat conduction, potential flow).

Abstract

Abstract A semi-inverse composite conformal mapping is considered for an infinite plane containing two holes. The construction combines a bilinear map from an annulus with a prescribed exterior map for one hole. This produces one boundary controlled by the chosen exterior map and a second boundary that is circular or nearly circular in the physical plane. When the exterior map is available in Laurent series form, the same representation can be used in truncated series solutions of selected harmonic potential problems, such as steady heat conduction and ideal potential flow. The method is illustrated by bilinear–hypotrochoid and bilinear–Schwarz–Christoffel examples.
