โฆ Synopsis
We show a highly efficient method to control heat conduction by tuning the periodicity of the external potential. This method provides a possible design of a controlled thermal conductor which can change from a thermal conductor to a thermal insulator. The efficiency of the controlled thermal conductor can be greater than 10 5 . Moreover, tuning the periodicity of the external potential may be more manageable than tuning its strength in practical applications.

The material derivative method is developed here for the optimal shape design in the control of a nonlinear heat conduction system in steady state described by a variational inequality. It is known that this method can be used for the optimal shape design for systems described by partial dtyerential
## Abstract A PV system's power output is not stable and fluctuates depending on weather conditions. Using a battery is one feasible measure to stabilize a PV system's power output, but it requires additional costs and results in additional waste of used batteries. In this paper, we propose a new m
