Abstract

The problem of identifying the solution (k(x, t),U(x, t)) in an inverse semilinear wave problem is considered. It is shown that under certain conditions of data φ, ψ, there exists a unique solution (k(x, t),U(x, t)) of this problem. Furthermore a numerical algorithm for solving the inverse semilinear wave problem is proposed. The approach for this inverse problem is given by using the semi-discretisation method. A polynomial function is proposed to approximate U(x, t) then the finite difference method is applied to approximate unknown k(x, t). Numerical results show efficiency of our method.
