Deformations of the computational mesh arising from optimization routines usually lead to decrease of mesh quality or even destruction of the mesh. We propose a theoretical framework using pre-shapes to generalize classical shape…

Shapes do not define a linear space. This paper explores the linear structure of deformations as a representation of shapes. This transforms shape optimization to a variant of optimal control. The numerical challenges of this point of view…
