111 111 %Of all available techniques we have chosen to truncate the domain by introducing a fictitious contour that encloses the domain of primary %interest and prescribe on it an asymptotic boundary condition which mimics the behaviour of the electrostatic potential in the region %outside the contour. Not only has it been shown that asymptotic boundaries give good results, the technique is relatively easy to implement %and preserves the sparsity of the finite element coefficient matrix which makes it a very efficient method as-well.\\
