Inverse problem for the Rayleigh system with spectral data
arXiv:2112.03365 · doi:10.1063/5.0055827
Abstract
We analyze an inverse problem associated with the time-harmonic Rayleigh system on a flat elastic half-space concerning the recovery of Lamé parameters in a slab beneath a traction-free surface. We employ the Markushevich substitution, while the data are captured in a Jost function, and point out parallels with a corresponding problem for the Schrödinger equation. The Jost function can be identified with spectral data. We derive a Gel'fand-Levitan type equation and obtain uniqueness with two distinct frequencies.
