Distributed shape derivative via averaged adjoint method and applications [PDF]
The structure theorem of Hadamard-Zol\'esio states that the derivative of a shape functional is a distribution on the boundary of the domain depending only on the normal perturbations of a smooth enough boundary.

On the shape derivative of polygonal inclusions in the conductivity problem [PDF]
We consider the conductivity problem for a homogeneous body with an inclusion of a different, but known, conductivity. Our interest concerns the associated shape derivative, i.e., the derivative of the corresponding electrostatic potential with respect ...

Designing gradient coils with the shape derivative and the closed B-spline curves. [PDF]
This study proposes a versatile and efficient optimisation method for discrete coils that induce a magnetic field by their steady currents. The prime target is gradient coils for MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging).

A shape derivative algorithm for reconstructing elastic dislocations in geophysics [PDF]
We consider the inverse problem of determining an elastic dislocation that models a seismic fault in the quasi-static regime of aseismic, creeping faults, from displacement measurements made at the surface of Earth.

Coupling Shape Optimization and Topological Derivative for Maxwell Equations
The paper deals with a coupling algorithm using shape and topological derivatives of a given cost functional and a problem governed by nonstationary Maxwell’s equations in 3D. To establish the shape and topological derivatives, an adjoint method is used.

On Topological Derivative in Shape Optimization [PDF]
In the paper the topological derivative for arbitrary shape functional is defined. Examples are provided for elliptic equations and the elasticity system in the plane. The topological derivative can be used for solving shape optimization problems in structural mechanics.

A shape-derivative approach to some PDE model in image restoration [PDF]
In this paper we analyze the shape derivative of a cost functional appearing in image restoration. The main feature of this cost functional is the appearance of a variable exponent.
