Chapter 7 Review Quiz<br />

Introduction In Section 4.5 we saw that analytic<br />

mappings can be usedto solve certain types of<br />

boundary-value problems. In this chapter we<br />

introduce the fundamental notion of a conformal<br />

mapping, andwe show that conformal mappings<br />

can be usedto solve a larger class of boundaryvalue<br />

problems. The methods we introduce are<br />

appliedto problems in heat flow, electrostatics,<br />

andfluidflow.<br />
