It&#8217;s about the problem in FEM-simulation, when you want to simulate a charge and you have neither boundary nor boundaryconditions. The solution here, formulated by Kelvin was, to separete the infinite simulationroom in an inner finite circle and an outer infinite circular disk. Once you&#8217;ve done this, you can transform the outer infinite circular disk into an finite circle of the same size of the inner one, regarding:<br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/s0.wp.com\/latex.php?latex=++R%28r%29+%3D+%5Cfrac%7Bo%5E%7B2%7D%7D%7Br%7D%5Cquad%5Cforall%7E+r+%3E+o++&#038;bg=ffffff&#038;fg=000000&#038;s=0' alt='  R(r) = \\frac{o^{2}}{r}\\quad\\forall~ r &gt; o  ' title='  R(r) = \\frac{o^{2}}{r}\\quad\\forall~ r &gt; o  ' class='latex' \/><br \/>\nnow you can discretisice the &#8220;infinite&#8221; circular disk in an arbitrary way but with the center as infinite and with the boundarycondition zero (with the assumption that everything dissapears in the in the infinty) .<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_115\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-115\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/wp12759592.server-he.de\/wp-dba88-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/PotVerlauf2d.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-115\" title=\"PotVerlauf2d\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/wp12759592.server-he.de\/wp-dba88-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/PotVerlauf2d-300x225.png\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.timokorthals.de\/wp-dba88-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/PotVerlauf2d-300x225.png 300w, http:\/\/www.timokorthals.de\/wp-dba88-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/PotVerlauf2d-768x576.png 768w, http:\/\/www.timokorthals.de\/wp-dba88-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/PotVerlauf2d.png 876w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-115\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Potential field of two charges<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>The following files may help to understand the Kelvin transformation.
