9. Mapping an Irregular area into a Rectangle
1. Forward mapping the irregular area
into a hyper-rectangle, w=zn
2. Forward mapping the hyper-rectangle
into a rectangle, ▽2ξ=0; ▽2η=0
3. Backward mapping the rectangle into
the hyper-rectangle, ▽2x=0; ▽2y=0
4. Backward mapping the hyper-rectangle
into the irregular area, z=w1/n
