The extended adjoint method

Stanislas Larnier, Mohamed Masmoudi (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

Searching for the optimal partitioning of a domain leads to the use of the adjoint method in topological asymptotic expansions to know the influence of a domain perturbation on a cost function. Our approach works by restricting to local subproblems containing the perturbation and outperforms the adjoint method by providing approximations of higher order. It is a universal tool, easily adapted to different kinds of real problems and does not need the fundamental solution of the problem;...

Topological asymptotic analysis of the Kirchhoff plate bending problem

Samuel Amstutz, Antonio A. Novotny (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

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...
