Y. Wan] Abstract.: By the method of boundary layer residual state (BLRS), it is possible to specify the unknown parameters in the general form of the outer asymptotic solution of the governing differential equations for linear boundary value problems (BVP) without any reference to the inner asymptotic solutions of the same problem and the matching procedure. The method accomplishes this task by rationally assigning a portion of the prescribed boundary data to the outer solution. Specifically, the method requires certain weighted averages of the outer solution to be equal to the same averages of the data over the (localized) boundary where the data is prescribed. These weighted averages are consequences of a reciprocity relation inherent in the BVP and the stipulation that the difference between the outer solution and the exact solution (called the residual solution) of the BVP be a boundary layer phenomenon.¶The weighted average requirements are only necessary conditions for the residual state to be a boundary layer. Unfortunately, there are generally countably infinite number of (2) states, many more than the available degrees of freedom in the outer solution to satisfy them. We must show that there is no over-determination or non-uniqueness of the outer asymptotic solution, the abundance of necessary conditions notwithstanding. The present note describes an approach to assuring a well-specified outer solution (up to the expected accuracy) by way of the problem of Saint-Venant torsion. The same approach also also applies to other linear BVP, deducing the appropriate outer solution whenever the determination of the relevant inner solutions is not practical.
