We consider the numerical solution, in two- and three-dimensional bounded domains, of the inverse problem for identifying the location of small-volume, conductivity imperfections in a medium with homogeneous background. A dynamic approach, based on the wave equation, permits us to treat the important case of “limited-view” data. Our numerical algorithm is based on the coupling of a finite element solution of the wave equation, an exact controllability method and finally a Fourier inversion for...

A numerical technique is presented for the solution of second order one dimensional linear hyperbolic equation. This method uses the trigonometric wavelets. The method consists of expanding the required approximate solution as the elements of trigonometric wavelets. Using the operational matrix of derivative, we reduce the problem to a set of algebraic linear equations. Some numerical example is included to demonstrate the validity and applicability of the technique. The method produces very accurate...

It is rather classical to model multiperforated plates by approximate impedance boundary conditions. In this article we would like to compare an instance of such boundary conditions obtained through a matched asymptotic expansions technique to direct numerical computations based on a boundary element formulation in the case of linear acoustic.
