Abstract:

In this article the general non-symmetric parametric form of the incremental secant stiffness matrix for nonlinear analysis of solids have been investigated to present a semi analytical sensitivity analysis approach for geometric nonlinear shape optimization. To approach this aim the analytical formulas of secant stiffness matrix are presented. The models were validated and used to perform investigating different parameters affecting the shape optimization. Numerical examples utilized for this investigating sensitivity analysis with detailed discussions presented.

Second order sensitivity analysis for shape optimization of continuum structures

This study focuses on the optimization of the plane structure. Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) will be utilized, which is one of the most efficient methods for solving nonlinearly constrained optimization problems. A new formulation for the second order sensitivity analysis of the two-dimensional finite element will be developed. All the second order required derivatives will be calculat...

2D Shape Deformation Using Nonlinear Least Squares Optimization

This paper presents a novel 2D shape deformation algorithm based on nonlinear least squares optimization. The algorithm aims to preserve two local shape properties: Laplacian coordinates of the boundary curve and local area of the shape interior, which are together represented in a non-quadric energy function. An iterative Gauss-Newton method is used to minimize this nonlinear energy function. ...
