Abstract

Topological optimization of non-Newtonian fluids is currently an active area in applied mathematics. Topological optimization aims to give an asymptotic expansion of a shape functional under PDE constraints. In this paper, we propose a topological derivative formulation for a non-Newtonian fluid governed by nonlinear PDE. By using generalized adjoint method, we give an asymptotic expansion of a given functional and consequently some numerical simulations are given in domains with obstacles and domains without obstacles.
