    An inverse source problem connected with thermoacoustic imaging in multi-layer planar medium
    (Springer, 2019-02-20) Yücel, Hazel; Ünalmış Uzun, Banu
    We derived analytical forward and inverse solution of thermoacoustic wave equation for nonhomogeneous medium. We modelled the nonhomogeneous medium as a multi-layer planar medium and defined initial conditions, continuity conditions on the layer boundaries and radiation conditions at infinity assuming the source distribution existing in all layers. These solutions of thermoacoustic wave equation are based on the method of Green’s functions for layered planar media. For qualitative testing and comparison of the point-spread functions associated with the homogeneous and layered solutions, we performed numerical simulations. Our simulation results showed that the conventional inverse solution based on homogeneous medium assumption, as expected, produced incorrect locations of point sources, whereas our inverse solution involving the multi-layer planar medium produced point sources at the correct source locations. Also, we examined whether the performance of our layered inverse solution is sensitive to medium parameters used as priority information in the measured data. Our inverse solutions based on multi-layer planar media are applicable for cross-sectional two-dimensional imaging of abdominal structure and the organs such as breast and skin.

    Inductor saturation compensation in three-phase three-wire voltage-source converters via inverse system dynamics
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022-05-01) Özkan, Ziya; Hava, Ahmet Masum
    In three-phase three-wire (3P3W) voltage-source converter (VSC) systems, utilization of filter inductors with deep saturation characteristics is often advantageous due to the improved size, cost, and efficiency. However, with the use of conventional synchronous frame current control methods, the inductor saturation results in significant dynamic performance loss and poor steady-state current waveform quality. This article proposes an inverse dynamic model-based compensation (IDMBC) method to overcome these performance issues. For this purpose, two-phase exact modeling of the 3P3W VSC control system is obtained. Based on the modeling, the inverse system dynamic model of the nonlinear system is obtained and employed such that the nonlinear plant is converted to a virtual linear inductor system for linear current regulators to perform satisfactorily. Further, to control phase currents in the synchronous frame, a two-phase coordinate transformation is proposed. The IDMBC method is tested via dynamic command response and waveform quality simulations and experiments that employ saturable inductors reaching down from full inductance at zero current to 1/9th inductance at full current. The results obtained demonstrate the suitability of the method for 3P3W VSCs employing saturable inductors.

    Image recovery of inaccessible rough surfaces profiles having impedance boundary condition
    (IEEE, 2022) Sefer, Ahmet; Yapar, Ali
    This letter addresses a reconstruction algorithm of locally rough inaccessible surface profiles via the knowledge of the scattered field data under the consideration of the impedance boundary condition (IBC). To this aim, first, the synthetic scattered field data are obtained through the solution of the conventional surface integral equation (SIE) written on the rough surface. Then, the same SIE together with the data equation is solved iteratively via Newton's method to obtain the image of the rough surface profile. In the numerical implementation, the nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem is linearized in an iterative fashion via the Newton method and regularized by Tikhonov in the least-squares sense. The feasibility of the algorithm is provided via numerical examples, which shows that the method is effective and promising.

    On the inverse point-source problem of the poisson equation
    (Istanbul University, 2005) Yılmaz, Melek; Şengül, Metin; Geçkinli, Melih
    In this work, a basic inverse heat conduction problem of a simple 2-D model with steady state heat source is taken into view. The physical problem is for a square region with uniform thermophysical properties and a point heat source of unit magnitude. To obtain boundary data, temperature probes are placed at the midpoints of the sides of the square domain. The objective of the inverse problem is to estimate the coordinates of the point source with the least amount of data. Initially, the inverse problem is analyzed to determine the main causes that render the problem ill conditioned. As for the solution, among the methods that has been tried so far, the best results are obtained from a backpropagating ANN with four-probe data. When white Gaussian noise is added to the measurements, no catastrophic failure has been observed.

    On the identification of microstretch elastic moduli of materials by using vibration data of plates
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2008-06) Kırış, Ahmet; İnan, Esin
    In the present work, the vibration problems of rectangular plates modeled by Eringen's microstretch theory are investigated for the identification of the upper bounds of the microstretch moduli of the plate material. The calculated frequencies of the plates are obtained by extending the Ritz method to the microstretch plates. The three dimensional (3D) vibration analysis of the plates shows that some additional frequencies occur among the classical frequencies as characterizing the microstretch effects. Then it is also observed that these additional frequencies disappear and only the classical frequencies remain with the increasing values of microstretch constants. The inverse problem is established for the identification of the upper bounds of the microstretch elastic constants as an optimization problem where an error function is minimized.

    CNN-Based deep learning architecture for electromagnetic imaging of rough surface profiles
    (IEEE, 2022-10) Aydın, İzde; Budak, Güven; Sefer, Ahmet; Yapar, Ali
    A convolutional neural network (CNN) based deep learning (DL) technique for electromagnetic imaging of rough surfaces separating two dielectric media is presented. The direct scattering problem is formulated through the conventional integral equations and the synthetic scattered field data is produced by a fast numerical solution technique which is based on Method of Moments (MoM). Two different special CNN architectures are designed and implemented for the solution of the inverse rough surface imaging problem wherein both random and deterministic rough surface profiles can be imaged. It is shown by a comprehensive numerical analysis that the proposed deep-learning (DL) inversion scheme is very effective and robust.

    Optimization of inverse problems involving surface reconstruction: least squares application
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Sefer, Ahmet
    This article addresses the least-squares method, which is vital in inverse scattering problems involving the reconstruction of inaccessible rough surface profiles from the measured scattered field data. The unknown surface profile is retrieved by a regularized recursive Newton algorithm which is regularized by the Tikhonov method. The importance of the least-squares application reveals at this point, where the unknown surface profile is expressed as a linear combination of some appropriate basis functions. Thus, the problem of obtaining the unknown rough surface is reduced to finding the unknown coefficients of these functions. As an optimization problem, the choice of appropriate basis functions, as well as the number of their expansions for rough surface imaging problems are essential for the iterative solutions. The validation limits and the performances of different basis functions are presented via several numerical examples.

    Reconstruction algorithm for impenetrable rough surface profile under Neumann boundary condition
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2022-05-24) Sefer, Ahmet; Yapar, Ali
    In this paper, an algorithm to reconstruct one-dimensional impenetrable rough surface from the knowledge of scattering field is presented. The rough surface is considered as locally perturbed and the scattering field data are collected above the roughness in a simple non-magnetic medium considering Neumann boundary condition. First, the surface integral equation constituted via the Neumann boundary condition is solved and scattering field data are observed synthetically. Then, the same surface integral equation together with the data equation are solved in an iterative fashion to reconstruct the surface variation. In the numerical implementation, the so-called ill-posed inverse problem is regularized with Tikhonov method and a least-squares solution is obtained by using Gaussian-type basis function. Finally, numerical examples are carried out to illustrate effectiveness of the method.

    Imaging of rough surfaces by RTM method
    (IEEE, 2024) Sefer, Ahmet; Yapar, Ali; Yelkenci, Tanju
    An electromagnetic imaging framework is implemented utilizing a single frequency reverse time migration (RTM) technique to accurately reconstruct inaccessible two-dimensional (2D) rough surface profiles from the knowledge of scattered field data. The unknown surface profile, which is expressed as a 1D height function, is either perfectly electric conducting (PEC) or an interface between two penetrable media. For both cases, it is assumed that the surface is illuminated by a number of line sources located in the upper medium. The scattered fields, which should be collected by real measurements in practical applications, are obtained synthetically by solving the associated direct scattering problem through the surface integral equations. RTM is subsequently applied to generate a cross-correlation imaging functional which is evaluated numerically and provides a 2D image of the region of interest. A high correlation is observed by the functional in the regions where the transitions between two media occur. Hence, it results in the acquisition of the unknown surface profile at the sites where the functional attains its highest values. The efficiency of the proposed method is comprehensively tested by numerical examples covering various types of scattering scenarios.
