We optimize its shape according to some given performance functional. Our method is of fixed domain type, easy to be implemented, based on a fictitious domain approach and the control variational method. The algorithm that we introduce is of gradient type and performs simultaneous topological and boundary variations. Numerical experiments are also included and show its efficiency.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-04-21T08:02:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "optimization", "control variational method", "constant thickness", "unknown multiply connected domain", "fictitious domain approach" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
