3D-IHCP on a finite cube (Q1913426)

Based on other publications of the authors the applicability of the space marching implementation of the mollification method is investigated for a three-dimensional inverse heat conduction problem (IHCP) in a slab to the three-dimensional inverse heat conduction problem on a bounded hypercube which is ill-posed as known. In the last case the transient temperature and heat flux data functions are measured at one face of the hypercube and the temperature and heat flux functions at the interior points and at all other faces of the hypercube are treated as unknown and recovered approximately. A fully explicit and stable marching scheme designed for the numerical solution of this new inverse problem is described. Moreover, two numerical examples are presented.
