Reconstruction of a function from its spherical (circular) means with the centers lying on the surface of certain polygons and polyhedra
We present explicit filtration/backprojection-type formulae for the inversion
of the spherical (circular) mean transform with the centers lying on the
boundary of some polyhedra (or polygons, in 2D). The formulae are derived using
the double layer potentials for the wave equation, for the domains with certain
symmetries. The formulae are valid for a rectangle and certain triangles in 2D,
and for a cuboid, certain right prisms and a certain pyramid in 3D. All the
present inversion formulae yield exact reconstruction within the domain
surrounded by the acquisition surface even in the presence of exterior sources.Comment: 9 figure
Monotonicity and enclosure methods for the p-Laplace equation
We show that the convex hull of a monotone perturbation of a homogeneous
background conductivity in the -conductivity equation is determined by
knowledge of the nonlinear Dirichlet-Neumann operator. We give two independent
proofs, one of which is based on the monotonicity method and the other on the
enclosure method. Our results are constructive and require no jump or
smoothness properties on the conductivity perturbation or its support.Comment: 18 page
The Method of Fundamental Solutions for Direct Cavity Problems in EIT
The Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) is an effective technique for solving linear elliptic partial differential equations, such as the Laplace and Helmholtz equation. It is a form of indirect boundary integral equation method and a technique that uses boundary collocation or boundary fitting. In this paper the MFS is implemented to solve A numerically an inverse problem which consists of finding an unknown cavity within a region of interest based on given boundary Cauchy data. A range of examples are used to demonstrate that the technique is very effective at locating cavities in two-dimensional geometries for exact input data. The technique is then developed to include a regularisation parameter that enables cavities to be located accurately and stably even for noisy input data
