Lipschitz continuous dependence of piecewise constant Lamé coefficients from boundary data: the case of non-flat interfaces

We consider the inverse problem of determining the Lame moduli for a piecewise constant elasticity tensor , where is a known finite partition of the body Ω, from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. We prove that Lipschitz stability estimates can be derived under regularity assumptions on the interfaces.
