Abstract

Abstract A numerical method for the solution of inverse heat conduction problems in two‐dimensional rectangular domains is established and its performance is demonstrated by computational results. The present method extends Beck's 8 method to two spatial dimensions and also utilizes future times in order to stabilize the ill‐posedness of the underlying problems. The approach relies on a line approximation of the elliptic part of the parabolic differential equation leading to a system of one‐dimensional problems which can be decoupled.
