Sensitivity analysis and computational shape optimization for incompressible flows
We consider the optimization of a cost functional defined for a fluid flowing through a channeL Parameters control the shape of an obstruction in the flow, and the strength of the inflow. The problem is discretized using finite elements. Optimization algorithms are considered which use either finit...
