Abstract

We present convergence arguments for algorithms developed to estimate spatially and/or time dependent coefficients and boundary parameters in general transport (diffusion, advection, sink/source) models in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ R2. A brief summary of numerical results obtained using the algorithms is given.
