چکیده
We apply the Piecewise Constant Level Set Method (PCLSM) to a multiphase motion problem, especially the pure mean curvature motion. We use one level set function to represent multiple regions, and by associating an energy functional which consists of surface tension (proportional to length), we formulate a variational approach for the mean curvature motion problem. Some operator-splitting schemes are used to solve the problem efficiently. Numerical experiments are supplied to show the efficiency for motion by mean curvature for multiphase problems. keywords: multiphase motion, level set method, piecewise constant, operator splitting

Piecewise Constant Level Set Method for Multiphase Motion
Abstract. We apply the Piecewise Constant Level Set Method (PCLSM) to a multiphase motion problem, especially the pure mean curvature motion. We use one level set function to represent multiple regions, and by associating an energy functional which consists of surface tension (proportional to length), we formulate a variational approach for the mean curvature motion problem.

متن کاملPiecewise Constant Level Set Method for In- terface Problems
We apply the Piecewise Constant Level Set Method (PCLSM) to interface problems, especially for elliptic inverse and multiphase motion problems. PCLSM allows using one level set function to represent multiple phases, and the interfaces are represented implicitly by the discontinuity of a piecewise constant level set function. The inverse problem is solved using a variational penalization method ...
متن کاملPiecewise Constant Level Set Method for 3D Image Segmentation
Level set methods have been proven to be efficient tools for tracing interface problems. Recently, some variants of the OsherSethian level set methods, which are called the Piecewise Constant Level Set Methods (PCLSM), have been proposed for some interface problems. The methods need to minimize a smooth cost functional under some special constraints. In this paper a PCLSM for 3D image segmentat...

In this paper the piecewise level set method is combined with phase field method to solve the shape and topology optimization problem. First, the optimization problem is formed based on piecewise constant level set method then is updated using the energy term of phase field equations. The resulting diffusion equation which updates the level set function and optimization ...
متن کاملTopological Shape Optimization of Multiphysics Actuators using Level Set Method
This paper proposes a topological shape optimization method for the design of multi-physics piezoelectric actuators using a level set method of piecewise constants. A level set function taking level sets of piecewise constants is applied to implicitly represent design boundaries in a multiphase design domain, in which each constant level set denotes one material phase. As a result, only one lev...
