Abstract

The objective of this short note is to employ an equation error approach to identify a variable parameter in fourth-order partial differential equations. Existence and convergence results are given for the optimization problem emerging from the equation error formulation. Finite element based numerical experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed framework.

Keywords: inverse problem; equation error method; fourth-order boundary value problem; regularization; parameter identification; finite element method
