Computational Inverse Techniques in Nondestructive Evaluation

By G.R. Liu, X. Han Copyright 2003

    Ill-posedness. Regularization. Stability. Uniqueness. To many engineers, the language of inverse analysis projects a mysterious and frightening image, an image made even more intimidating by the highly mathematical nature of most texts on the subject. But the truth is that given a sound experimental strategy, most inverse engineering problems can b
