Determination of conductivity in a heat equation

We consider the problem of determining the conductivity in a heat equation from overspecified non-smooth data. It is an ill-posed inverse problem. We apply a regularization approach to define and construct a stable approximate solution. We also conduct numerical simulation to demonstrate the accurac...

description We consider the problem of determining the conductivity in a heat equation from overspecified non-smooth data. It is an ill-posed inverse problem. We apply a regularization approach to define and construct a stable approximate solution. We also conduct numerical simulation to demonstrate the accuracy of our approximation.
