Taking into consideration symmetry this reduces to,

Substituting (d) into (f) we obtain the following equation:

Hence,

This gives after integration,
-^ + α^ = 0 (i)

Whence the value of v becomes,

and u is given by formula (b).
Note that the magnitude of

or
v
may be displaced from the correct
solution by a constant value. In order to determine this value one can
carry out the following integration over the x=l,0<y<l side:

Example 1.9
Let us now solve the same problem as in Example 1.8, but using
boundary collocation and starting with equation (9). We can take as
