How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In the paper we consider a stationary diffusion problem described by the Poisson equation. The problem is considered in a model domain, chosen as a half disk. Classical Dirichlet boundary conditions are set on the arc of the circle. New nonlocal boundary conditions are set on the bottom base. The first condition means the equality of flows through opposite radii, and the second condition is the proportionality of distribution densities on these radii with a variable coefficient of proportionality. Uniqueness and existence of the classical solution to the problem are proved. An inverse problem for the solution to the Poisson equation and its right-hand part depending only on an angular variable are considered. As an additional condition we use the boundary overdetermination. Inverse problems to the Dirichlet and Neumann problems, and to problems with nonlocal conditions of the equality of flows through the opposite radii are considered. The well-posedness of the formulated inverse problems is proved.
