The classic application of dual integral equations occurs in connexion with the potential of a circular disc (e.g. Titchmarsh (9), p. 334). Suppose that the disc lies in z = 0, 0≤ρ≤1, where we use cylindrical coordinates (p, z). Then it is required to find a solution of

such that on z = 0

Separation of variables in conjunction with the conditions that ø is finite on the axis and ø tends to zero as z tends to plus infinity yields the particular solution .
