I am trying to solve Laplace equation in a regular hexagon. My equation is ∇2ϕ=0 and boundary conditions are :
ϕ=0 (at the base of hexagon)
ϕ=ϕ1;
ϕ=ϕ2;
ϕ=ϕ3;
ϕ=ϕ4;
ϕ=ϕ5 (the above five boundary conditions are for the remaining 5 sides.)
Now, I don't have any analytical solution for this problem. Is this solvable in MATLAB by any means. I am completely confused and don't know how to proceed.
Thanks
