Lipschitz stability in inverse problems for a Kirchhoff plate equation

In this paper, we prove a Carleman estimate for a Kirchhoff plate equation and apply the Carleman estimate to inverse problems of determining spatially varying two Lame coefficients and the mass density by a finite number of boundary observations. Our main results are Lipschitz stability estimates for the inverse problems under suitable conditions of initial values and boundary val-
