Abstract:
We study the stagnation zones for solutions to the Laplace–Beltrami equation, i.e. the domains ($s$-zones) in which the solutions are close to constants. The estimates for the sizes of $s$-zones in long strips are pointed out for various types of boundary conditions.
Key words:stagnation zone, Laplace–Beltrami equation, Saint-Venant principle, long and narrow strips.
