A method is proposed to solve an inverse problem in twodimensional linear isotropic elasticity. The inverse problem consists of the determination of both the entire displacement field and the boundary conditions inaccessible to the measurement from the partial knowledge of the displacement field. The algorithm is based on a fading regularization method (FRM) and is numerically implemented using the method of fundamental solutions (MFS). The inverse technique is first validated with synthetic data and is then applied to the interpretation of experimental measurements obtained by digital image correlation (DIC).

AbstractIn this paper, a meshless regularization method of fundamental solutions is proposed for a two-dimensional, two-phase linear inverse Stefan problem. The numerical implementation and analysis are challenging since one needs to handle composite materials in higher dimensions. Furthermore, the inverse Stefan problem is ill-posed since small errors in the input data cause large errors in the desired output solution. Therefore, regularization is necessary in order to obtain a stable solution. Numerical results for several benchmark test examples are presented and discussed.

Purpose The study of heat transfer mechanisms is an area of great interest because of various applications that can be developed. Mathematically, these phenomena are usually represented by partial differential equations associated with initial and boundary conditions. In general, the resolution of these problems requires using numerical techniques through discretization of boundary and internal points of the domain considered, implying a high computational cost. As an alternative to reducing computational costs, various approaches based on meshless (or meshfree) methods have been evaluated in the literature. In this contribution, the purpose of this paper is to formulate and solve direct and inverse problems applied to Laplace’s equation (steady state and bi-dimensional) considering different geometries and regularization techniques. For this purpose, the method of fundamental solutions is associated to Tikhonov regularization or the singular value decomposition method for solving the direct problem and the differential Evolution algorithm is considered as an optimization tool for solving the inverse problem. From the obtained results, it was observed that using a regularization technique is very important for obtaining a reliable solution. Concerning the inverse problem, it was concluded that the results obtained by the proposed methodology were considered satisfactory, as even with different levels of noise, good estimates for design variables in proposed inverse problems were obtained. Design/methodology/approach In this contribution, the method of fundamental solution is used to solve inverse problems considering the Laplace equation. Findings In general, the proposed methodology was able to solve inverse problems considering different geometries. Originality/value The association between the differential evolution algorithm and the method of fundamental solutions is the major contribution.

In this paper, the goal is to revolve around discussing the stability of the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) for the use case of wave-current interactions. Further, the reliability of Generating-Absorbing Boundary Conditions (GABCs) applied to the wave-current interactions is investigated using the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS), in a Numerical Wave Tank (NWT) within the potential theory where the main regular manifestations are the periodicity, and symmetry of traveling waves. Besides, the investigations cover different aspects of currents (coplanar current, without current, and opposing current), and also different water depths. Furthermore, the accuracy and stability of the numerical method (MFS) used in this work is evaluated for different locations and numbers of source points.

A Cauchy problem in linear elasticity is considered. This problem is governed by a Fredholm integral equation of the first kind and cannot be solved directly. The regularization method, which has been originally employed by Gao and Mura (1989), is formulated from a different perspective in order to address some of the difficulties experienced in their formulation. The theoretical details are discussed in this paper. Numerical examples are treated to Part II.
