    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shape optimization; continuum sensitivity; electromagnetic scattering; adjoint problem;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis uses a continuum formulation of sensitivity for shape optimization in two-dimensional microwave scattering and quasimagnetostatic problems. The continuum sensitivity is obtained by solving an appropriate adjoint problem. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Analysis, Control, and Design Optimization of Engineering Mechanics Systems

    Författare :Esubalewe Lakie Yedeg; Martin Berggren; Eddie Wadbro; Anton Evgrafov; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Topology optimization; Helmholtz equation; acoustic impedance; anisotropic filter; thin structures; finite element method; Nitsche-type method; interface problem; Optimal control; adjoint method; business data processing; administrativ databehandling;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis considers applications of gradient-based optimization algorithms to the design and control of some mechanics systems. The material distribution approach to topology optimization is applied to design two different acoustic devices, a reactive muffler and an acoustic horn, and optimization is used to control a ball pitching robot.

  7. 15. Material distribution-based topology optimization for wave propagation problems

    Författare :Ahmad Hasnain Bokhari; Eddie Wadbro; Martin Berggren; Roland Herzog; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; topology optimization; material distribution; wave propagation problems; Helmholtz equation; acoustics; electromagnetics; plasmonics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis employs material distribution-based topology optimization for wave propagation problems. In the material distribution approach, we define a material indicator function that models the presence and absence of material in a design domain. LÄS MER
