A Topology-Preserving Level Set Method for Shape Optimization
arXiv:math/0405142 · doi:10.1016/j.jcp.2004.10.005
Abstract
The classical level set method, which represents the boundary of the unknown geometry as the zero-level set of a function, has been shown to be very effective in solving shape optimization problems. The present work addresses the issue of using a level set representation when there are simple geometrical and topological constraints. We propose a logarithmic barrier penalty which acts to enforce the constraints, leading to an approximate solution to shape design problems.
