ABSTRACT
The paper addresses a two-dimensional boundary identification (reconstruction) problem in steady-state heat conduction. Having found the solution to the Laplace equation by superpositioning T-complete functions, the unknown boundary of a plane region is approximated by polynomials of an increasing degree. The provided examples indicate that sufficient accuracy can be obtained with a use of polynomials of a relatively low degree, which allows avoidance of large systems of nonlinear equations. Numerical simulations for assessing the performance of the proposed algorithm show better than 1% accuracy after a few iterations and very low sensitivity to small data errors.
