Abstract:The present paper is concerned with the solution of a Bernoulli type free boundary problem by means of shape optimization. Two state functions are introduced, namely one which satisfies the mixed boundary value problem, whereas the second one satisfies the pure Dirichlet problem. The shape problem under consideration is the minimization of the L 2 -distance of the gradients of the state functions. We compute the corresponding shape gradient and Hessian. By the investigation of sufficient second order condition… Show more
“…We remark that, as compared to the form of the shape Hessian presented in [22], the result we have established here in Theorem 9 clearly shows the relation pointed in [26] by Delfour and Zolésio about the form of shape Hessians obtained through nonautonomous velocity fields.…”

“…As far as the authors are concerned, the same functional was first studied by Eppler and Harbrecht and published in [22] wherein the first-order shape derivative, or equivalently the shape gradient, was derived for arbitrary variations in terms of the perturbation of the identity. Moreover, the second-order shape derivative, or equivalently the shape Hessian, has been computed and analyzed for the special cases of star-like domains.…”

“…In the present paper, the same functional is studied again but we focus on the application of velocity method in dealing with shape optimization problem. It would be a challenging research in the near future to study the ill-posedness of the shape optimization problem for general domains, as well as the comparison of the shape Hessians in this paper from [22] for the former uses Cartesian coordinates, while the latter used spherical/polar coordinates. The nice thing in the present paper is that the results attest to classical results in shape optimization problems.…”

The exterior Bernoulli free boundary problem was studied via shape optimization technique. The problem was reformulated into the minimization of the so-called Kohn-Vogelius objective functional, where two state variables involved satisfy two boundary value problems, separately. The paper focused on solving the second-order shape derivative of the objective functional using the velocity method with nonautonomous velocity fields. This work confirms the classical results of Delfour and Zolésio in relating shape derivatives of functionals using velocity method and perturbation of identity technique.

“…Assuming the existence of a solution to (1.1) we adopt the so-called KohnVogelius formulation, which applies for inverse problems (see [13,14,26] for instance) and which consists in matching a Dirichlet and a Neumann problem. For an application of this technique to the Bernoulli free boundary problem we refer to [3,9].…”
Abstract.A free boundary problem for the Stokes equations governing a viscous flow with overdetermined condition on the free boundary is investigated. This free boundary problem is transformed into a shape optimization one which consists in minimizing a Kohn-Vogelius energy cost functional. Existence of the material derivatives of the states is proven and the corresponding variational problems are derived. Existence of the shape derivative of the cost functional is also proven and the analytic expression of the shape derivative is given in the Hadamard structure form.
