Abstract
The recovery of defects and cracks in solids using overdetermined boundary data, both the Dirichlet and the Neumann types, is considered in this paper. A review of the method for solving these inverse problems is given, focusing particularly on linearized inverse problems. It is shown how the reciprocity gap functional can solve nonlinear inverse problems involving identification of cracks and distributed defects in bounded solids. Exact solutions for planar cracks in 3D solids are given for static elasticity, heat diffusion and transient acoustics.KeywordsInverse ProblemCauchy ProblemBoundary DataData PairPlanar CrackThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
