Wavelet-Galerkin Method for Identifying an Unknown Source Term in a Heat Equation

Solving a Nonlinear Inverse Problem of Identifying an Unknown Source Term in a Reaction-diffusion Equation by Adomian Decomposition Method

We consider the inverse problem of finding the nonlinear source for nonlinear Reaction-Diffusion equation whenever the initial and boundary condition are given. We investigate the numerical solution of this problem by using Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM). The approach of the proposed method is to approximate unknown coefficients by a nonlinear function whose coefficients are determined from...

Numerical Solution of the Inverse Problem of Determining an Unknown Source Term in a Heat Equation

This paper investigates the inverse problem of determining a heat source in the parabolic heat equation using the usual conditions. Firstly, the problem is reduced to an equivalent problem which is easy to handle using variational iteration method. Secondly, variational iteration method is used to solve the reduced problem.

Identifying an Unknown Source in the Poisson Equation by a Modified Tikhonov Regularization Method

In this paper, we consider the problem for identifying the unknown source in the Poisson equation. A modified Tikhonov regularization method is presented to deal with illposedness of the problem and error estimates are obtained with an a priori strategy and an a posteriori choice rule to find the regularization parameter. Numerical examples show that the proposed method is effective and stable....

A Continuous Wavelet-galerkin Method for the Linear Wave Equation

We consider the continuous space-time Galerkin method for the linear second-order wave equation proposed by French and Peterson in 1996. A bottleneck for this approach is how to solve the discrete problems effectively. In this paper, we tackle this bottleneck by essentially employing wavelet bases in space. We show how to decouple the corresponding linear system and we prove that the resulting ...
