Unknown Source

A numerical procedure for an inverse problem of identification of an unknown source in a heat equation is presented. Approach of proposed method is to approximate unknown function by polygons linear pieces which are determined consecutively from the solution of minimization problem based on the overspecified data. Numerical examples are presented.

This paper considers a numerical method based on the radial basis functions for the inverse problem of heat equation; the inverse problem is determining an unknown source term subject to the overdetermination along with the usual initial boundary conditions, and the unknown source term is only time-dependent. The radial basis functions method is a meshless method with high accuracy for the inverse problem. Some numerical experiments using this method are presented and discussed.
