Numerical Solution of Problems in Unbounded Regions: Coordinate Transforms

Abstract

This investigation is the utility of mappings to solve numerically problems in infinite regions. It is demonstrated by example that mappings are very useful if the solution being sought behaves in a simple way at infinity; otherwise, mappings are not particularly helpful.
