Two Level Correction Algorithm for Parametric Shape Inverse Optimization

International audienceOur efforts are mostly concentrated on improving the convergence rate of the numerical procedures both from the viewpoint of cost-efficiency and accuracy by handling the parametrization of the shape to be optimized. We employ nested parameterization supports of either shape, or shape deformation, and the classical process of degree elevation resulting in exact geometrical data transfer from coarse to fine representations. The algorithms mimick classical multigrid strategies and are found very effective in terms of convergence acceleration. In this paper, we analyse and demonstrate the efficiency of the two-level correction algorithm which is the basic block of a more general miltilevel strategy
