Abstract
Our main interest in this work is to detect a rigid inclusion immersed in an isotropic elastic body $\Omega$ from a single pair of Cauchy data on $\partial \Omega$ in two dimensions. We want to completely characterize the unknown rigid inclusion, namely, the shape and the location of inclusion. The idea is to rewrite the inverse problem as an optimization problem, where an energy like functional is minimized with respect to the presence of a small inclusion. A topological sensitivity analysis is derived for an energy like functional. We proposed a non-iterative reconstruction algorithm based on the topological gradient concept. The unknown rigid inclusion is defined by a level curve of a scalar function. The proposed numerical approach is very robust with respect to noisy data. Finally, in order to show the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed algorithm, we present some numerical results.
