Determination of model parameters for the hydrogen permeability of metals

The nonlinear inverse problem of determining the permeability parameters of metals for hydrogen from experimental data is examined. The model includes adsorption-desorption processes as well as diffusion. An algorithm is proposed for determining the model parameters from a known desorption flux without the need for writing specialized computer programs. Zh. Tekh. Fiz. 68, 38–42 (November 1998)
