Métodos Iterativos de Regularização para Identificação do Coeficiente de Rigidez na Equação de Euler-Bernoulli para Vigas

ABSTRACT

In this contribution, we analyze the identifiability of the stiffness coefficient inverse problem in beams modeled by the Euler-Bernoulli equation, from measurements of the beam deflection. We present the problem in the form of a parameter-to-measure operator equation, for which we prove important properties, such as compactness and continuity. We also show that the parameter-to-measure operator is Fréchet differentiable and that it satisfies the tangential cone condition. These properties are sufficient to recover in a stable and convergent way (regularization method) the stiffness coefficient through iterative methods such as Landweber and Steepest descent. Finally, we present the stability effects of the approximate solutions concerning measurements with different noise levels through numerical examples.
