“…In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of literature on inverse problems (IPs) related to the classic thermoelastic system, e.g. [6,8,34,43,7,42,26,3,41,24,19,37,25,38,36,15,14]. These inverse problems in thermoelasticity addressed so far in the literature are mainly related to boundary data reconstruction [6,8,34,20,24,19,25,14], shape optimization problems, detection of flaws (e.g.…”
