Recovery of a time-dependent source term from a sixth-order parabolic partial differential equation
摘要
In this article, we are interested in recovering a time-dependent source term from a sixth-order parabolic partial differential equation. The unknown time-dependent source term is recovered using an additional local integral measurement. First, we introduce a time-discrete scheme for the variational problem by using backward Euler’s method. Then, we prove this scheme’s existence and uniqueness results with the aid of Lax-Milgram lemma. Next, we prove some a priori estimates, which are inevitable to derive the main results of this article. Finally, using these a priori estimates, we derive the main results, which are the existence and uniqueness results for the inverse source problem.
