Dual integral equations for the solution of the heating problem for a half-space through an infinitely long strip (Q2736107)

By the method of dual integral equations, the author gives the solution of the two-dimensional axially symmetric non-stationary heating problem for a half-space heated up on the Fourier law through a thin infinitely long strip outside of which on the surface of the half-space an initial temperature is supported (i.e. mixed boundary conditions are given): \[ a^{-1}\theta_\tau(x,z,\tau)=\theta_{xx}(x,z,\tau)+\theta_{zz}(x,z,\tau), \quad x,z,\tau,a>0, \] \[ -\theta_z(x,0,\tau)=\frac{q(x,\tau)}{\lambda},\quad 0<x<R, \quad \lambda\neq 0,\quad \tau>0, \] \[ \theta(x,0,\tau)=0,\quad R<x<\infty,\quad \tau>0, \] \[ \theta_{x}(0,z,\tau)=0,\quad z,\tau>0, \] \[ \lim_{x\to\infty}\theta(x,z,\tau)=0,\quad \tau\geq 0. \]
