Development of a 3-D Impedance Tomography

Abstract

Long-term goals. The long-term goals of this project are to determine the feasibility of detecting objects or inclusions in a uniform medium by using a 3-D impedance tomography, to verify its applicability experimentally, and to establish the limitations of the proposed technique. Objectives. The object of this project is to develop a 3-D impedance tomography system by which spheroidal objects can be imaged from boundary measurements in a uniform conductive target space. This is a fundamental numerical study as an attempt to extend a successful 2-D algorithm to 3-D. The determination of the stability and robustness of this imaging algorithm is of primary importance.
