where A Cy and B is a consistent approximation of the reduced Hessian. Convergence results for quadratic models in (Ito/Kunisch/ Schulz/Gherman, SIMAX 2010) Comparison with Griewank (ISNM 165, 2014)

  • Finite shape parametrization in many

industrial shape optimizations

– Pro: vector space setting, fits in CAD framework – Con: complexity inevitably increases with number of parameters, mesh sensitivities can become expensive, set of reachable shapes is restricted

  • Nonparametric approach built on shape calculus

– Pro: avoids cons of parametric approach, can be very efficient – Con: no longer vector space setting, theoretically more challenging

Parametric versus nonparametric

  • Usage of shape derivatives alone may lead to unphysical

geometries

  • Shape Hessian approximations help to

– „smooth“ gradients – Speed up convergence in the fashion of a Newton-like method – Give potentially mesh independence

Potential problem: too much freedom

derivative, we can unleash the Riemannian structure on shape optimization

2008] for matrix manifolds.

Newton convergence

  • Riemannian variants of quadratic convergence

results are possible.

  • In particular, if we eliminate expressions from the

Hessian, which are zero at the solution, still quadratic convergence is achieved.

Conclusions

  • Many applications profit from a non-parametric

approach.

  • The Riemannian perspective enables SQP-like shape
  • ptimization methods.
  • Several open questions remain

– what is the appropriate Riemannian metric? – C-infinity is far too smooth for practical applications – What about completions in an appropriate norm? – What features of the exponential map are essential for approximations (retractions)? – Large shape deformations tend to develop kinks
