Abstract: | In this article, the inverse source problems of 2D and 3D elliptic type nonlinear partial differential equations are resolved. For this purpose, a family of single-parameter homogenization functions that automatically meet the given boundary conditions are deduced and employed as the bases to expand the solution. We solve a linear algebraic equations system which satisfies the over-specified Neumann boundary condition to obtain the unspecified coefficients, and then the solution in the entire domain is permitted. Taking the solution into the governing equation, the unknown source function can be determined quickly. The present novel method is verified to be an accurate, effective, and robust scheme which is without solving nonlinear equations and iterations, and the additional data used are quite economical. |
