Optimal stability in the identification of a rigid inclusion in an isotropic Kirchhoff-Love plate

In this paper we consider the inverse problem of determining a rigid inclusion inside a thin plate by applying a couple field at the boundary and by measuring the induced transversal displacement and its normal derivative at the boundary of the plate. The plate is made by non-homogeneous, linearly elastic and isotropic material. Under suitable a priori regularity assumptions on the boundary of the inclusion, we prove a constructive stability estimate of log type. Key mathematical tool is a recently proved optimal three spheres inequality at the boundary for solutions to the Kirchhoff-Love plate's equation.
