    A boundary element method is applied to solve the Stokes equations for an arbitrarily initial-shaped fluid region. The numerical problems that can arise in computing the curvature of the outer boundary, in particular when this is varying rapidly, are discussed. A number of numerical examples are shown for simply connected regions which transform themselves into circles as time increases.
