Integral equation methods for elastance and mobility problems in two dimensions

Numerical Analysis 2017-12-25 v1

Abstract

We present new integral representations in two dimensions for the elastance problem in electrostatics and the mobility problem in Stokes flow. These representations lead to resonance-free Fredholm integral equations of the second kind and well conditioned linear systems upon discretization. By coupling our integral equations with high order quadrature and fast multipole acceleration, large-scale problems can be solved with only modest computing resources. We also discuss some applications of these boundary value problems in applied physics.
