Abstract :
The Galerkin methods of obtaining approximate solutions of integral equations and their applications to problems of scattering of electromagnetic and surface water waves are examined. Two typical problems, one occurring in electromagnetic wave propagation and the other in the propagation of two dimensional surface water waves, are taken up as illustrative examples of the methods
