ANALYTIC SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS FOR SHAPE OPTIMIZATION

Abstract

Abstract: Analytic sensitivity analysis technology for the boundary element method (BEM) is presented, combined with a shape optimization system for structural analysis. A shape optimization was done for an elastomer under planar stress, based on this new algorithm. A multi-object problem was studied as an illustrative example for the programmer, using weighted summing method. The result is feasible.

Key words: BEM, design sensitivity analysis, shape optimization, square plate with a hole
