Solving the Dirichlet problem using conformal maps
$begingroup$
I have been tasked with using conformal maps to find solutions to the Dirichlet problem on various regions given the solution $u(x,y) = y$ on the strip ${x + iy mid 0 leq y leq 1}$ satisfying $u(x, 0) = 0, u(x, 1) = 1$.
The first two (of five) regions are:
$U = {zmid r_1 leq |z| leq r_2}, u(z)=0$ when $|z| = r_1, u(z) = 1$ when $|z| = r_2$,
$U={zmid Im(z) geq 0}, u(x,0)=0$ when $x > 0, u(x,0)=1$ when $x <0$.
How do I proceed to solve this sort of question? I cannot even see where to begin. I feel as though I'm somehow meant to find conformal maps from the various $U$'s to the given strip, but I cannot figure out how I'm meant to find those.
I've deliberately not asked about all the parts, because I do want to do this question. I just feel as though I'm missing an obvious trick that's stopping me from getting anywhere.
