On regularization and error estimates for the backward heat conduction problem with time-dependent thermal diffusivity factor

摘要

This paper is concerned with a backward heat conduction problem with time-dependent thermal diffusivity factor in an infinite "strip". This problem is drastically ill-posed which is caused by the amplified infinitely growth in the frequency components. A new regularization method based on the Meyer wavelet technique is developed to solve the considered problem. Using the Meyer wavelet technique, some new stable estimates are proposed in the Holder and Logarithmic types which are optimal in the sense of given by Tautenhahn. The stability and convergence rate of the proposed regularization technique are proved. The good performance and the high-accuracy of this technique is demonstrated through various one and two dimensional examples. Numerical simulations and some comparative results are presented.
