Abstract

Dual integral equations with trigonometric kernel are reinvestigated here for a solution. The behaviour of one of the integrals at the end points of the interval complementary to the one in which it is defined plays the key role in determining the solution of the dual integral equations. The solution of the dual integral equations is then applied to find an exact solution of the water wave scattering problems.
