چکیده

We consider the inverse problem of determining the shape of some inaccessible portion of the boundary of a region in n dimensions from Cauchy data for the heat equation on an accessible portion of the boundary. The inverse problem is quite ill-posed, and nonlinear. We develop a Newton-like algorithm for solving the problem, with a simple and efficient means for computing the required derivatives, develop methods for regularizing the process, and provide computational examples.

Boundary temperature reconstruction in an inverse heat conduction problem using boundary integral equation method

‎In this paper‎, ‎we consider an inverse boundary value problem for two-dimensional heat equation in an annular domain‎. ‎This problem consists of determining the temperature on the interior boundary curve from the Cauchy data (boundary temperature and heat flux) on the exterior boundary curve‎. ‎To this end‎, ‎the boundary integral equation method is used‎. ‎Since the resulting system of linea...

Stability and Reconstruction for an Inverse Problem for the Heat Equation

We examine the inverse problem of determining the shape of some unknown portion of the boundary of a region Ω from measurements of the Cauchy data for solutions to the heat equation on Ω. By suitably linearizing the inverse problem we obtain uniqueness and continuous dependence results. We propose an algorithm for recovering estimates of the unknown portion of the surface and use the insight ga...

A Boundary Element Regularization Method for the Boundary Determination in Potential Corrosion Damage

In this paper, we consider the inverse problem for the Laplace equation in two-dimensions which requires the determination of the location, size and shape of an unknown, or partially unknown, portion @ of the boundary @ of a solution domain R from additional Cauchy data on the remaining portion of the boundary 1⁄4 @ . This problem arises in the study of quantitative non-destructive evaluation o...

General Convergent Expectation Maximization (em)-type Algorithms for Image Reconstruction

Obtaining high quality images is very important in many areas of applied sciences, such as medical imaging, optical microscopy, and astronomy. Image reconstruction can be considered as solving the ill-posed and inverse problem y = Ax+n, where x is the image to be reconstructed and n is the unknown noise. In this paper, we propose general robust expectation maximization (EM)-Type algorithms for ...
