Reconstruction of Elastic Inclusions of Small Volume via Dynamic Measurements

We consider the inverse problem of identifying locations and certain properties of the shapes of small elastic inclusions in a homogeneous background medium from dynamic boundary measurements for a finite interval in time. Using particular background solutions as weights, we present an asymptotic method based on appropriate averaging of the dynamic boundary measurements and propose non-iterative algorithms for solving our inverse problem.
