  1. Problem Find the shape of an acoustic horn that minimizes the reflection. Shape optimization is usually done with a moving mesh. + Good precision - Complicated mathematics - Expensive calculations We have solved the problem with a fixed mesh + Easier implementation + Less calculations - Lower precision Method FEM The wave propagation is modeled by a finite-element approximation of the Helmoltz equation. Shape representation The shape of the horn is completely described by a binary function that indicates whether a cell is a part of the geometry or not. Optimization The reflection is the objective function and is minimized using a quasi-Newton method with BFGS update. Results Minimized reflection The reflection is initially 44% at 350 Hz and after 7 iterations has the method reached an optimal horn with only 0.2%. The initial and optimal horn.
