Abstract

We study the geometric inverse problem of cavities identification in linear elasticity equation with partially over-determined boundary data. This work proposes a way to compute the topological derivative based on the topological sensitivity analysis concepts, adopting the energy-gap and the -gap as cost functionals. Then, a comparison of both functionals is presented to determine the best choice for numerical studies. Further, several numerical experiences are shown to explore the efficiency of this method.
