Differential equations are fundamental tools in physics: they are used to describe phenomena ranging from fluid dynamics to general relativity. But when these equations become stiff (i.e. they involve ...

Abstract: Constitutive or material models provide a mathematical description of how solids respond to mechanical stimuli. For example, an isotropic linear elastic constitutive model describes a ...

In this paper the Generalized Pulse-Spectrum Technique (GPST) is extended to solve an inverse problem for the Burgers equation. We prove that the GPST is equivalent in some sense to the ...

Computer-generated holography (CGH) provides an approach to digitally modulate a given wavefront. This technology, partly inherited from optical holography and partly advanced by the progress of ...

Vol. 19, No. 3, Special Issue: Integral Equations and Inverse Boundary Value Problems (FALL 2007), pp. 237-260 (24 pages) We study the inverse problem to reconstruct the shape of a three dimensional ...
