Abstract A new method to solve topology optimization problems is discussed. This method is based on the use of a Wavelet-Galerkin scheme to solve the elasticity problem associated with each iteration of the topology optimization sequence. Typically, finite element methods are used for this analysis. However, as the mesh size grows, the computational requirements necessary to solve the finite element equations increase beyond the capacity of current desk top computers. This problem is inherent to finite element methods, as the condition number of finite element matrices increases with mesh size. Wavelet-Galerkin techniques are used to replace standard finite element methods in an attempt to alleviate this problem. Examples demonstrating the performance of the new methodology are presented.

Abstract We prove upper and lower bounds for the spectral condition number of rectangular Vandermonde matrices with nodes on the complex unit circle. The nodes are “off the grid,” pairs of nodes nearly collide, and the studied condition number grows linearly with the inverse separation distance. Such growth rates are known in greater generality if all nodes collide or for groups of colliding nodes. For pairs of nodes, we provide reasonable sharp constants that are independent of the number of nodes as long as non-colliding nodes are well-separated.

In this work a quantitative and qualitative comparison of the Local Discontinuous Galerkin method and classical finite element methods applied to elliptic problems is performed. High order discretizations are considered. The methods are compared with respect to accuracy of the approximation, rates of convergence, asymptotic behavior of the spectral condition number of the stiffness matrix.
