Two numerical methods are considered for the conformai mapping of a bounded simply-connected domain onto the unit disc. The two methods are respectively the Bergman kernel method, which has been described in [17], and the so-called Ritz method. In this paper we indicate the close theoretical relationship of the two methods, compare their computational efficiencies and present a number of practical applications of the approximate conformal maps. © 1981.
