✦ Synopsis

This paper presents analytical sensitivity computation using hybrid ®nite elements. Expressions have been derived for analytical response sensitivities using two-dimensional hybrid elements developed on the basis of the modi®ed Hu±Washizu variational principle. Computational algorithms have been formulated for sensitivity computation and the same have been implemented using a partial symbolic computational scheme, veri®cation being done with standard bench-mark examples. Illustrations of the response sensitivity computation with respect to sizing variables have been presented. The improvement in the accuracy of sensitivity values using hybrid elements as compared with conventional displacement based elements is examined.

Using Hermit basis functions with the finite element method offers a remarkably simple way to compute non-isothermal buoyancy-driven incompressible flow. The Hermite bases we use simplify the governing equation and strongly enforce the continuity equation. For this problem, we use a fourth-order C 1
