A remark on the enclosure method for a body with an unknown homogeneous background conductivity
نویسنده
چکیده
Previous applications of the enclosure method with a finite set of observation data to a mathematical model of electrical impedance tomography are based on the assumption that the conductivity of the background body is homogeneous and known. This paper considers the case when the conductivity is homogeneous and unknown. It is shown that, in two dimensions if the domain occupied by the background body is enclosed by an ellipse, then it is still possible to extract some information about the location of unknown cavities or inclusions embedded in the body without knowing the background conductivity provided the Fourier series expansion of the voltage on the boundary does not contain high frequency parts (band limited) and satisfies a non vanishing condition of a quantity involving the Fourier coefficients.

In this paper, shielding effectiveness (SE) of a perforated enclosure with imperfectly conducting walls is evaluated. To this end, first, an accurate numerical technique based on method of Moments (MoM) ispresented. In this method, lossy metallic walls of the enclosure are replaced by equivalent electric surfacecurrent sources. Then, the impedance boundary condition on the imperfectly conductin...

In this paper, the non-Fourier heat conduction in a semi-infinite body was examined. The heat wave non-Fourier heat conduction model was used for thermal analysis. Thermal conductivity was assumed temperature-dependent which resulted in a non-linear equation. The heat source was also considered temperature-dependent which resulted in a non-homogeneous equation. The Mac-Cormack predictor-correct...

The effects of Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) on mixed convection in a cavity are investigated numerically. The problem is studied for different Richardson numbers (0.1-10), volume fractions of nanotubes (0-1%), and aspect ratio of the cavity (0.5-2.5) when the Grashof number is equal to 103. The volume fraction of added nanotubes to Water as base fluid are lowers than 1% to make dilute ...
