The equation (D2−1)v=W is inverted by the displayed formula: differentiating twice produces the endpoint contribution W(y), since sinh0=0 and (sinh)′(0)=1. If W=a1​Ai(Z)+a2​Bi(Z), there are four independent constants C+​,C−​,a1​,a2​. This reconstructs the velocity from the Airy reduction of the Orr-Sommerfeld equation in constant shear; four no-slip and no-flux conditions determine the boundary eigenproblem.
