Recovery of the rod cross-section shape

From MaRDI portal





In this study, the authors discuss a new approach for one type of inverse problems for longitudinal vibrations of a rod with a variable cross-section. A method for solving coefficient inverse problem is developed. The method is based on the Neumann series of Bessel functions (NSBF) representations for solutions of Sturm-Liouville equations. The main idea consists in reducing the inverse problem to the problem of finding the first coefficient, denoted by \(g_{0}(x)\), of the NSBF representation. These are coefficient results sufficient for recovering the unknown function \(F(x)\). In the first step, from the given information of the problem, the NSBF coefficients are computed at the end point \(x=\pi.\) In the second step, a system of linear algebraic equations for the NSBF coefficients is obtained for interior points of the interval \((0,\pi).\) This is done by computing the multiplier constants \(\beta_{k}\), which relate certain eigenfunctions normalized at the origin with those normalized at \(x=\pi.\) Finally, the NSBF coefficients for all \(x\in (0,\pi)\) and, in particular, the first NSBF coefficient \(g_{0}(x)\) are obtained by solving the system of linear algebraic equations. The function \(F(x)\) is obtained from \(g_{0}(x)\). Thus, the method is direct, and the whole algorithm reduces to dealing with the NSBF coefficients of the solutions, which are computed from the system of linear algebraic equations. The proposed method leads to an efficient numerical algorithm.
