On the Problem of Optimal Material Distribution

open access: yes, 1996
The paper considers the problem of optimum distribution of two materials with a linear scalar elliptic PDE as the state problem and a general objective functional, not only compliance.

Maximizing Band Gaps In Two-Dimensional Photonic Crystals

open access: yes
. Photonic crystals are periodic structures composed of dielectric materials, and designed to exhibit band gaps i.e., ranges of frequencies in which electromagnetic waves cannot propagate, or other interesting spectral behavior.

Detection and Remediation of Stagnation in the Nelder-Mead Algorithm Using a Sufficient Decrease Condition

open access: yes, 1997
. The Nelder-Mead algorithm can stagnate and converge to a non-optimal point, even for very simple problems. In this note we propose a test for sufficient decrease which, if passed for the entire iteration, will guarantee convergence of the Nelder-Mead ...

Optimal Generalized Cubature Technique for Constructing Higher-Precision Cubature Rules

open access: yes
This paper presents a generalized cubature technique for constructing higher-precision cubature rules from existing lower-precision rules. By combining the Anti-Gaussian 3-point, Fejer’s second 3-point, and Lobatto 4-point cubature rules through an ...

A Discontinuous Finite Element Method For Solving A Multi-Well Problem

open access: yes, 1998
. Many physical materials of practical relevance can attain several variants of crystalline microstructure. The appropriate energy functional is necessarily non-convex, and the minimization of the functional becomes a challenging problem. A new numerical
