In this paper, we modify the sensitivity analysis of a structural optimization process by using a coupled finite element-element-free Galerkin method. The aim is to improve the sensitivity analysis and to avoid a mesh degradation that can occur when the design variables are perturbed while using cla

In complex forging processes, it is essential to "nd the optimal deformation path and the optimal preform shape that will lead to the desired "nal shape and service properties. A sensitivity analysis and optimization for preform billet shape in thermo-mechanical coupled simulation is developed in th
This paper demonstrates that the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method can be successfully used in shape design sensitivity analysis and shape optimization for problems in 2D elasticity. The continuum-based variational equations for displacement sensitivities are derived and are subsequently discretize
