Abstract

The question of wave source identification in a wave maker problem is the primary objective of the this paper. With the observed wave elevation, the existence of the wave maker velocity is discussed with the help of the mathematical theory of inverse problems. Utilizing the property of the Strum-Liouville system and compactness, the uniqueness and the ill-posedness(in the sense of stability) for the identification are proved.
