The inverse coefficient problem for unions of homogeneous bodies

We propose a model that makes it possible to determine the complex of thermophysical characteristics of a union of homogeneous bodies based on the solution of the nonstationary two-dimensional problem of thermal conductivity for a semibounded body with a foreign platelike inclusion perpendicular to the boundary surface; the body is subject to rapid heating by heat fluxes along thin strips.Translated fromMatematicheskie Metody i Fiziko-Mekhanicheskie Polya, Issue 36, 1992, pp. 63–66.
