In this paper we consider some geometric inverse problems for the linear wave equation. We prove uniqueness results, we present some reconstruction algorithms and we perform numerical experiments in dimensions one and two.
Keywords: Inverse problems, reconstruction, numerical solution, elastography., shape identification, Freefem++, wave equation.
