Abstract

Motivated by a parameter identification problem for a fourth-order partial differential equation which models the design of car windscreens by the sagging process, we numerically study a parameter identification problem which is of second-order as an equation for the parameter. The error magnitude and structure for a regularized Landweber method for solving this nonlinear inverse problem with interior data depend markedly on the type of this second-order equation.
