The first numerical implementation of a D-bar method in 3D using electrode data is presented. Results are compared to Calderons method as well as more common TV and smoothness regularization-based methods. D-bar methods are based on tailor-made non-linear Fourier transforms involving the measured current and voltage data. Low-pass filtering in the non-linear Fourier domain is used to stabilize the reconstruction process. D-bar methods have shown great promise in 2D for providing robust real-time absolute and time-difference conductivity reconstructions but have yet to be used on practical electrode data in 3D, until now. Results are presented for simulated data for conductivity and permittivity with disjoint non-radially symmetric targets on spherical domains and noisy voltage data. The 3D D-bar and Calderon methods are demonstrated to provide comparable quality to their 2D CGO counterparts, and hold promise for real-time reconstructions.

Objective: Absolute images have important applications in medical Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) imaging, but the traditional minimization and statistical based computations are very sensitive to modeling errors and noise. In this paper, it is
demonstrated that D-bar reconstruction methods for absolute EIT are robust to such errors. Approach: The effects of errors in domain shape and electrode placement on absolute images computed with 2D D-bar reconstruction algorithms are studied on experimental data. Main Results: It is demonstrated with tank data from several EIT systems that these methods are quite robust to such modeling errors, and furthermore the artefacts arising from such modeling errors are similar to those occurring in classic time-difference EIT imaging. Significance: This study is promising for clinical applications where absolute EIT images are desirable, but previously thought impossible.
In this paper we discuss a hybridised method for FEM-BEM coupling. The coupling from both sides use a Nitsche type approach to couple to the trace variable. This leads to a formulation that is robust and flexible with respect to approximation spaces
and can easily be combined as a building block with other hybridised methods. Energy error norm estimates and the convergence of Jacobi iterations are proved and the performance of the method is illustrated on some computational examples.
The inverse problem in Acousto-Electric tomography concerns the reconstruction of the electric conductivity in a domain from knowledge of the power density function in the interior of the body. This interior power density results from currents prescr
ibed at boundary electrodes (and can be obtained through electro-static boundary measurements together with auxiliary acoustic measurement. In Electrical Impedance Tomography, the complete electrode model is known to be the most accurate model for the forward modelling. In this paper, the reconstruction problem of Acousto-Electric tomography is posed using the (smooth) complete electrode model, and a Levenberg-Marquardt iteration is formulated in appropriate function spaces. This results in a system of partial differential equations to be solved in each iteration. To increase the computational efficiency and stability, a strategy based on both the complete electrode model and the continuum model with Dirichlet boundary condition is proposed. The system of equations is implemented numerically for a two dimensional scenario and the algorithm is tested on two different numerical phantoms, a heart and lung model and a human brain model. Several numerical experiments are carried out confirming the feasibility, accuracy and stability of the methods.
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are used, with huge success, to model phenomena arising across all scientific and engineering disciplines. However, across an equally wide swath, there exist situations in which PDE models fail to adequately mode
l observed phenomena or are not the best available model for that purpose. On the other hand, in many situations, nonlocal models that account for interaction occurring at a distance have been shown to more faithfully and effectively model observed phenomena that involve possible singularities and other anomalies. In this article, we consider a generic nonlocal model, beginning with a short review of its definition, the properties of its solution, its mathematical analysis, and specific concrete examples. We then provide extensive discussions about numerical methods, including finite element, finite difference, and spectral methods, for determining approximate solutions of the nonlocal models considered. In that discussion, we pay particular attention to a special class of nonlocal models that are the most widely studied in the literature, namely those involving fractional derivatives. The article ends with brief considerations of several modeling and algorithmic extensions which serve to show the wide applicability of nonlocal modeling.
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) aims to recover the internal conductivity and permittivity distributions of a body from electrical measurements taken on electrodes on the surface of the body. The reconstruction task is a severely ill-posed nonl
inear inverse problem that is highly sensitive to measurement noise and modeling errors. Regularized D-bar methods have shown great promise in producing noise-robust algorithms by employing a low-pass filtering of nonlinear (nonphysical) Fourier transform data specific to the EIT problem. Including prior data with the approximate locations of major organ boundaries in the scattering transform provides a means of extending the radius of the low-pass filter to include higher frequency components in the reconstruction, in particular, features that are known with high confidence. This information is additionally included in the system of D-bar equations with an independent regularization parameter from that of the extended scattering transform. In this paper, this approach is used in the 2-D D-bar method for admittivity (conductivity as well as permittivity) EIT imaging. Noise-robust reconstructions are presented for simulated EIT data on chest-shaped phantoms with a simulated pneumothorax and pleural effusion. No assumption of the pathology is used in the construction of the prior, yet the method still produces significant enhancements of the underlying pathology (pneumothorax or pleural effusion) even in the presence of strong noise.
