Abstract

The primary objective of this work is to develop a computational framework for the inverse problem of identifying variable parameters appearing non-linearly in a variational problem. We propose a new first-order adjoint method and two new second-order adjoint methods. All the derivative formulas are given in continuous as well as discrete setting. Detailed numerical examples are given to show the feasibility of the proposed framework.
