Abstract
We have been investigating topology optimisation methods with the boundary element method (BEM) and the level set method for wave problems. In this paper, we propose a method for topological sensitivity analysis, which is essential to the topology optimisation method, for two-dimensional elastic wave problems with the BEM. The topological derivative is derived in a regorous manner with the help of the Airy stress function.
