Description

The Schwarz-Christoffel transformation is a recipe for a conformal map to a region bounded by a polygon. They can be computed to very high accuracy in little time. These maps can make certain Laplace boundary value problems trivial to solve on such domains.

Example:
p = polygon([0 i -1+i -1-i 1-i 1]); % L-shaped region
f = diskmap(p); % find map
plot(f) % visualize it
phi = lapsolve(p,[1 nan 4 3 nan 2]); % solve a BVP
[t,x,y] = triangulate(p);
trisurf(t,x,y,phi(x+i*y)); % see it

CANT FIND GOOD DOCUMENTATION ABOUT THIS SUBJECT, VERY POOR

08 Oct 2008 Al van Deursen

I used the software on many instances and found its results in excellent agreement with practical experiments. Wrote a few scientific papers using the results.
Documentation on Driscoll's personal webpage was more than sufficient for somebody with knowledge in basic calculus and Schwarz - Christoffel analysis.

I have used the toolbox and it is excellent.
I have some problems with crowding for some polygon.
I will send you the polygon where i have the problem.

I have sent to you an example to the polygone where i have severe crowding. Could you give me answer and your opignon.

Indispensable! Saved so much time using this rather than coding up everything in Fortran!
