Fireshape: a shape optimization toolbox for Firedrake

21 Sep 2020 · Paganini Alberto, Wechsung Florian ·

We introduce Fireshape, an open-source and automated shape optimization toolbox for the finite element software Firedrake. Fireshape is based on the moving mesh method and allows users with minimal shape optimization knowledge to tackle with ease challenging shape optimization problems constrained to partial differential equations (PDEs).
