Abstract
Inverse problem of identifying the unknown spacewise dependent source f(x) in a nonlinear damped wave equation with a memory term is investigated. The missing coefficient f(x) is reconstructed from the final time observation u(x,T) = ψT(x). Uniqueness of a solution to the inverse source problem is proved. We also propose a Landweber-type algorithm for reconstruction. Convergence of approximations towards the exact solution is established for a linear equation.
