A new technique for machine precision evaluation of singular and nearly singular potential integrals with 1/R singularities is presented. The numerical quadrature scheme is based on a new rational expression for the integrands, obtained by a cancellation procedure. In particular, by using library routines for Gauss quadrature of rational functions readily available in the literature, this new expression permits the exact numerical integration of singular static potentials associated with polynomial source distributions. The rules to achieve the desired numerical accuracy for singular and nearly singular static and dynamic potential integrals are presented and discussed, and several numerical examples are provided.

Abstract

A new technique for machine precision evaluation of singular and nearly singular potential integrals with 1/R singularities is presented. The numerical quadrature scheme is based on a new rational expression for the integrands, obtained by a cancellation procedure. In particular, by using library routines for Gauss quadrature of rational functions readily available in the literature, this new expression permits the exact numerical integration of singular static potentials associated with polynomial source distributions. The rules to achieve the desired numerical accuracy for singular and nearly singular static and dynamic potential integrals are presented and discussed, and several numerical examples are provided.
