Inferring the shape of a solid inside a draining tank from its liquid level dynamics

G Fabusola, CM Simon - arXiv preprint arXiv:2408.14503, 2024 - arxiv.org
We aim to reconstruct the shape of an exogenous, heavy solid contained in a tank from
measurements of the liquid level in the tank as it drains (driven by gravity) through a small …
