“…In order to arrive at the appropriate boundary condition at x~ = ~, we first observe that, if f(x~) were constant for 0--< x2--< h, the function u(xl, xz) = kx~ (4.4) would satisfy the differential equation (3.2), the free surface conditions (4.1), and the end condition (4.2), provided the constant k is chosen so that 13 See p. 203 of [11].
