determination of inner boundaries in modified helmholtz inverse geometric problems using the method of fundamental solutions

in this paper, an inverse geometric problem for the modified helmholtz equation arising in heat conduction in a fin, which consists of determining an unknown inner boundary (rigid inclusion or cavity) of an annular domain from a single pair of boundary cauchy data is solved numerically using the method of fundamental solutions (mfs). a nonlinear minimisation of the objective function is regularised when noise is added into the input boundary data. the stability of numerical results is investigated for several test examples.
