Abstract
This paper describes a parametric optimization technique for shape and topology optimization. The proposed method is a generalization of the classical method of level sets which are represented with discrete grids. In using radial basis functions (RBFs), the proposed formulation projects the geometric motion of the level sets of an implicit function onto its parametric representation. The resulting method provides a set of new capabilities for general shape and topology optimization, particularly treating it as a parameter problem with the RBF implicit models. Numerical examples are presented in the paper, suggesting the potential of the method.
