English abstract:
A method for optimal actuator design in vibration control is presented. The optimal actuator, parametrized as a characteristic function, is found by means of the topological derivative of the LQR cost. An abstract framework is proposed based on the theory for infinite-dimensional optimization of both the actuator shape and the associated control problem. A numerical realization of the optimality condition is developed for the actuator shape using a level-set method for topological derivatives. A numerical example illustrating the design of actuator for Euler-Bernoulli beam model is provided.
