Estimation of the radiation source term with a conjugate-gradient method of inverse analysis

The conjugate-gradient method of inverse analysis using an adjoint function approach is presented for the solution of an inverse radiation problem for estimating the source term from measured exit radiation intensities in a plane-parallel slab. The advantage of the method is that the inverse problem...

Description
Summary:The conjugate-gradient method of inverse analysis using an adjoint function approach is presented for the solution of an inverse radiation problem for estimating the source term from measured exit radiation intensities in a plane-parallel slab. The advantage of the method is that the inverse problem is solved as an optimization problem in function space with no prior information on the functional form of the unknown source term.
