On Convergence in Elliptic Shape Optimization
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is aimed at analyzing the existence and convergence of approximate solutions in shape optimization. Two questions arise when one applies a Ritz-Galerkin discretization to solve the necessary condition: does there exists an approximate solution and how good does it approximate the solution of the original infinite dimensional problem? We motivate a general setting by some illustrative examples, taking into account the so-called two norm discrepancy. Provided that the infinite dimensional shape problem admits a stable second order optimizer, we are able to prove the existence of approximate solutions and compute the rate of convergence. Finally, we verify the predicted rate of convergence by numerical results.

A Level Set Based Shape Optimization Method for an Elliptic Obstacle Problem
In this paper we construct a level set method for an elliptic obstacle problem, which can be reformulated as a shape optimization problem. We provide a detailed shape sensitivity analysis for this reformulation and a stability result for the shape Hessian at the optimal shape. Using the shape sensitivities we construct a geometric gradient flow, which can be realized in the context of level set...
متن کاملAirfoil Shape Optimization with Adaptive Mutation Genetic Algorithm
An efficient method for scattering Genetic Algorithm (GA) individuals in the design space is proposed to accelerate airfoil shape optimization. The method used here is based on the variation of the mutation rate for each gene of the chromosomes by taking feedback from the current population. An adaptive method for airfoil shape parameterization is also applied and its impact on the optimum desi...
متن کاملA Penalization and Regularization Technique in Shape Optimization Problems
We consider shape optimization problems, where the state is governed by elliptic partial differential equations (PDE). Using a regularization technique, unknown shapes are encoded via shape functions, turning the shape optimization into optimal control problems for the unknown functions. The method is studied for elliptic PDE to be solved in an unknown region (to be optimized), where the regula...
