Abstract:
This paper investigates the inverse problems of determining a space-dependent source for thermoelastic systems of type-III under adequate time-averaged or final-in-time measurements and conditions on the time-dependent part of the sought source. Several numerical methods are proposed and examined, including a Landweber scheme and minimisation methods for the corresponding cost functionals, which are based on the gradient and conjugate gradient method. A shortcoming of these methods is that the values of the sought source are fixed ab initio and remain fixed during the iterations. The Sobolev gradient method is applied to overcome the possible inaccessibility of the source values at the boundary. Numerical examples are presented to discuss the different approaches and support our findings based on the implementation on the FEniCSx platform.
