A relaxation method of an alternating iterative algorithm for the Cauchy problem in linear isotropic elasticity
We propose two algorithms involving the relaxation of either the given Dirichlet data (boundary displacements) or the prescribed Neumann data (boundary tractions) on the over-specified boundary in the case of the alternating iterative algorithm of Kozlov et al. [16] applied to Cauchy problems in linear elasticity. A convergence proof of these relaxation methods is given, along with a stopping criterion. The numerical results obtained using these procedures, in conjunction with the boundary element method (BEM), show the numerical stability, convergence, consistency and computational efficiency of the proposed method.
