Topological Sensitivity Based Far-Field Detection of Elastic Inclusions
The aim of this article is to present and rigorously analyze topological
sensitivity based algorithms for detection of diametrically small inclusions in
an isotropic homogeneous elastic formation using single and multiple
measurements of the far-field scattering amplitudes. A cost functional is
considered and a location indicator is constructed from its topological
derivative. The performance of the indicator is analyzed in terms of the
topological sensitivity for location detection and stability with respect to
measurement and medium noises. It is established that the location indicator
does not guarantee inclusion detection and achieves only a low resolution when
there is mode-conversion in an elastic formation. Accordingly, a weighted
location indicator is designed to tackle the mode-conversion phenomenon. It is
substantiated that the weighted function renders the location of an inclusion
stably with resolution as per Rayleigh criterion.Comment: 31 pages, 1 figur
A Joint Sparse Recovery Framework for Accurate Reconstruction of Inclusions in Elastic Media
A robust algorithm is proposed to reconstruct the spatial support and the Lame parameters of multiple inclusions in a homogeneous background elastic material using a few measurements of the displacement field over a finite collection of boundary points. The algorithm does not require any linearization or iterative update of Green's function but still allows very accurate reconstruction. The breakthrough comes from a novel interpretation of Lippmann Schwinger type integral representation of the displacement field in terms of unknown densities having common sparse support on the location of inclusions. Accordingly, the proposed algorithm consists of a two-step approach. First, the localization problem is recast as a joint sparse recovery problem that renders the densities and the inclusion support simultaneously. Then, a noise robust constrained optimization problem is formulated for the reconstruction of elastic parameters. An efficient algorithm is designed for numerical implementation using the Multiple Sparse Bayesian Learning (M-SBL) for joint sparse recovery problem and the Constrained Split Augmented Lagrangian Shrinkage Algorithm (C-SALSA) for the constrained optimization problem. The efficacy of the proposed framework is manifested through extensive numerical simulations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first algorithm tailored for parameter reconstruction problems in elastic media using highly under-sampled data in the sense of Nyquist rate
