## Abstract In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the boundary perturbations of an object from farโfield electric or acoustic measurements. Assuming that the unknown scatterer boundary is a small perturbation of a circle, we develop a linearized relationship between the farโfield da

Abstract
In this paper, we deal with the acoustic inverse scattering problem for reconstructing cracks of possibly different types from the farโfield map. The scattering problem models the diffraction of waves by thin twoโsided cylindrical screens. The cracks are characterized by their shapes, the type of boundary conditions and the boundary coefficients (surface impedance). We give explicit formulas of the indicator function of the probe method, which can be used to reconstruct the shape of the cracks, distinguish their types of boundary conditions, the two faces of each of them and reconstruct the possible material coefficients on them by using the farโfield map. To test the validity of these formulas, we present some numerical implementations for a single crack, which show the efficiency of the proposed method for suitably distributed surface impedances. The difficulties for numerically recovering the properties of the crack in the concave side as well as near the tips are presented and some explanations are given.

We consider the reconstruction of complex obstacles from few far-field acoustic measurements. The complex obstacle is characterized by its shape and an impedance function distributed along its boundary through Robin type boundary conditions. This is done by minimizing an objective functional, which
