Reconstruction of an Unknown Boundary Portion from Cauchy Data in N-dimensions
نویسنده
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.

متن کاملBoundary 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...

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...

متن کاملDiscretized Tikhonov regularization for Robin boundaries localization
We deal with a boundary detection problem arising in nondestructive testing of materials. The problem consists in recovering an unknown portion of the boundary, where a Robin condition is satisfied, with the use of a Cauchy data pair collected on the accessible part of the boundary. We combine a linearization argument with a Tikhonov regularization approach for the local reconstruction of the u...
