Title: Method of Quasi-Reversibility for a Heat Transfer Problem

Abstract: This is an example of the method of Quasi-Reversibility for a one-dimensional heat transfer problem. The forward problem is solved using the Crank-Nicolson method. The results then form the `data' for the quasi-reversibility method. A perturbation term is added to the original heat equation and a change of variables results in a damped wave equation. This wave equation is then solved by a finite difference method. The recovered heat flux is then compared to the heat flux used in the forward problem.
