This paper is concerned with the problem of determining approximations to the function F which maps conformally a simply-connected domain \(\Omega\) onto a rectangle R, so that four specified points on \(\partial \Omega\) are mapped respectively onto the four vertices of R. In particular, we study the following two classes of methods for the mapping of domains of the form \(\Omega:=\{z=x+iy:\) \(0<x<1\), \(\tau_ 1(x)<y<\tau_ 2(x)\}\). (i) Methods which approximate \(F: \Omega\to R\) by \(\tilde F=S\circ \tilde f\), where \(\tilde f\) is an approximation to the conformal map of \(\Omega\) onto the unit disc, and S is a simple Schwarz-Christoffel transformation. (ii) Methods based on approximating the conformal map of a certain symmetric doubly-connected domain onto a circular annulus.
