Nonlinear sensitivity analysis and its application to the optimal shape design of pressure vessels
A method of calculating design sensitivities for non-linear continuum systems is presented. The sensitivity process is established through operating on the converged solution of a set of non-linear equations which have been solved by the finite element method. The method is applied to structural ela...
