    An accurate characterization of temperature-dependent material parameters of piezoceramics is crucial for the design and simulation of reliable sensors and actuators. This characterization is typically formulated as an ill-posed inverse problem, which is challenging to solve not only because of its ill-posedness, but also because of parameter sensitivities, which vary by several orders of magnitude … Read more

    This paper introduces a regularized, structure-exploiting Powell-Symmetric-Broyden (RSE-PSB) method under modified secant conditions for solving ill-posed inverse problems in both infinite dimensional and finite dimensional settings. The approximation of the symmetric, yet potentially indefinite, second-order term, which is neglected by standard Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) approaches, integrates regularization and structure exploitation directly within the Quasi-Newton (QN) framework, … Read more
