Mixed Boundary Value Problems

This book covers the various methods used to solve mixed boundary value problems. It uses MATLAB^(R) to illustrate the solutions and contains the code so readers can reproduce some of the examples. The author provides examples of mixed boundary value problems and the mathematical background of integral functions and special functions. He then presents classic mathematical physics problems to explain the origin of mixed boundary value problems and the mathematical techniques that were developed to handle them. The remaining chapters solve a variety of mixed boundary value problems using separation of variables, transform methods, the Wiener-Hopf technique, Green's function, and conformal mapping.
