摘要

We present two applications of the volume integral equation method in the context of linear isotropic plane strain elasticity. In the static case, building on Eshelby’s inclusion method, we derive a uniquely solvable integro-differential equation for the eigenstrain. For the time-harmonic elastodynamic case, we reformulate the boundary value problem as a Lippmann–Schwinger integral equation. Our focus then shifts to the inverse problem of reconstructing the elastic properties of an inclusion from the far-field pattern of scattered waves, using a limited number of incident fields. We derive the Fréchet derivative of the forward operator and formulate the linearized far-field equation, which is solved using a regularized Newton-type method. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed approach.
