AbstractConsider the direct and inverse scattering problem of time harmonic acoustic waves by a two-dimensional elastic obstacle which contains an unknown impenetrable object inside. We apply the boundary integral equation method to solve the direct scattering problem. Since the obtained boundary integral system is a mixed form of scalar and vector equations, we consider the existence of the solution in the sense of a weak formulation. The factorization method is employed to solve the corresponding inverse scattering problem, that is, we try to recover the shape of the interaction surface from the knowledge of acoustic far-field patterns. With the help of a special data to pattern operator 𝐺, we can reconstruct the shape of the interaction surface by using the classical factorization method. Furthermore, a new mixed reciprocity relation is proposed to show the relation between the interior elastic field and unitary matrix 𝒮.

AbstractThis paper is concerned with the inverse scattering problem for the three-dimensional Maxwell equations in bi-anisotropic periodic structures. The inverse scattering problem aims to determine the shape of bi-anisotropic periodic scatterers from electromagnetic near-field data at a fixed frequency. The factorization method is studied as an analytical and numerical tool for solving the inverse problem. We provide a rigorous justification of the factorization method which results in the unique determination and a fast imaging algorithm for the periodic scatterer. Numerical examples for imaging three-dimensional periodic structures are presented to examine the efficiency of the method.

Abstract This paper is concerned with the inverse scattering problem of time-harmonic elastic waves by a mixed-type scatterer, which is given as the union of an impenetrable obstacle and a crack. We develop the modified factorization method to determine the shape of the mixed-type scatterer from the far field data. However, the factorization of the far field operator $F$ is related to the boundary integral matrix operator $A$, which is obtained in the study of the direct scattering problem. So, in the first part, we show the well posedness of the direct scattering problem by the boundary integral equation method. Some numerical examples are presented at the end of the paper to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the inverse algorithm.

The inverse scattering problem for acoustic waves in shallow oceans are different from that in the spaces of R2 and R3 in the way that the “propagating” far-field pattern can only carry the information from the N +1 propagating modes. This loss of information leads to the fact that the far-field pattern operator is not injective. In this paper, we will present some properties of the far-field pattern operator and use this information to construct an injective far-field pattern operator in a suitable subspace of L2(∂Ω). Based on this construction an optimal scheme for solving the inverse scattering problem is presented using the minimizing Tikhonov functional.
