Hi!I had some questions when I read pooma tutorials. Now as this mailing list do exist I'll ask one of them.http://www.zib.de/benger/pooma/tut-01.html#laplaceLaplace's equation in two dimensions is: /d^2 V/dx^2 + d^2 V/dy^2 = 0 / where /V/ is, for example, the electric potential in a flat metal sheet.How a flat metal(perfect conductor as I suppose) sheet could have a _potential distribution_? It has only the charge distribution, but the electric potential is constant on the conducting surface in (quasi)static case.Cheers, Roman.
Would this text be more acceptable:"... where V is, for example, the electric potential of a charge-free flat metal sheet"?
