contents We consider the elastic wave scattering problem involving rigid obstacles. This work addresses the inverse problem of reconstructing the position and shape of such obstacles using far-field measurements. A novel monotonicity-based approach is developed for this purpose. By factorizing the far-field operator and utilizing the existence of localized wave functions, we derive a shape characterization criterion for the obstacle boundary. The proposed method employs monotonicity tests to determine the geometric relationship between any given test domain and the actual scatterer. As a result, the shape and location of rigid elastic obstacles can be uniquely identified without requiring any initial guesses or prior knowledge of the physical parameters of the homogeneous background medium.
