Numerical Methods in Sensitivity Analysis and Shape Optimization

by Emmanuel Laporte, Patrick Le Tallec, Volker Stalmann

Sensitivity analysis and optimal shape design are key issues in engineering that have been affected by advances in numerical tools currently available. This book, and its supplementary online files, presents basic optimization techniques that can be used to compute the sensitivity of a given design to local changes of data, or to improve its performance by local optimization. It will be of interest to graduate students involved in mathematical modeling...
