Synopsis

Existence and uniqueness theorems are obtained for a class of mixed boundary value problems associated with the three-dimensional Helmholtz equation. In this context the boundary of the region of interest is assumed to consist of the union of a finite number of disjoint, closed, bounded Lyapunov surfaces on some of which are imposed Dirichlet conditions whilst Neumann conditions are imposed on the remainder. An integral equation method is adopted throughout. The required boundary integral equations are generated by a modified layer theoretic approach which extends the work of Brakhage and Werner [1] and Leis [2, 3].
