The aim of the topological asymptotic analysis is to provide an asymptotic expansion of a shape functional with respect to the size of a small inclusion inserted inside the domain. The main field of application is shape optimization. This paper addresses the case of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid and a no-slip condition prescribed on the boundary of an arbitrary shaped obstacle. The two and three dimensional cases are treated for several examples of cost functional...

This paper deals with topology optimization of domains subject to a pointwise constraint on the gradient of the state. To realize this constraint, a class of penalty functionals is introduced and the expression of the corresponding topological derivative is obtained for the Laplace equation in two space dimensions. An algorithm based on these concepts is proposed. It is illustrated by some numerical applications.
The topological asymptotic analysis provides the sensitivity of a given shape functional with respect to an infinitesimal domain perturbation, like the insertion of holes, inclusions, cracks. In this work we present the calculation of the topological derivative for a class of shape functionals associated to the Kirchhoff plate bending problem, when a circular inclusion is introduced at an arbitrary point of the domain. According to the literature, the topological derivative has been fully developed...
The topological sensitivity analysis consists in studying the behavior of a given shape functional when the topology of the domain is perturbed, typically by the nucleation of a small hole. This notion forms the basic ingredient of different topology optimization/reconstruction algorithms. From the theoretical viewpoint, the expression of the topological sensitivity is well-established in many situations where the governing p.d.e. system is of elliptic type. This paper focuses on the derivation...
