We consider the reconstruction of obstacles inside a bounded domain filled with an incompressible fluid. Our method relies on special complex geometrical optics solutions for the stationary Stokes equation with a variable viscosity.
Keywords: inverse problem., complex spherical waves, Stokes system.
