Abstract: | A shape reconstruction method for geophysical objects by temperature measurements is presented which uses adjoint equations
and a level set function approach. Temperature is measured on subdomains, e.g., representing boreholes. This information is
used to reconstruct the shape of the geophysical layers. For this purpose, shape optimization techniques are applied. The
method uses a representation of the layers by a so-called level set function. The evolution of this level set function is
then used to determine the optimal shape. The “speed” of the evolution is computed using adjoint equations. Synthetic examples
demonstrate the use of the inverse method and its behavior in different configurations. |
