Acoustic Shape Optimization Based on Isogeometric Wideband Fast Multipole Boundary Element Method with Adjoint Variable Method

A shape optimization approach based on isogeometric wideband fast multipole boundary element method (IGA WFMBEM) in 2D acoustics is developed in this study. The key treatment is shape sensitivity analysis by using the adjoint variable method under isogeometric analysis (IGA) conditions. A set of efficient parameters of the wideband fast multipole method has been identified for IGA boundary element method. Shape optimization is performed by...
