Abstract : Perimetric type functionals are known to be difficult to handle directly within topology optimization algorithms because of their high sensitivity to topology changes. I will present a Gamma-convergence approximation of an anisotropic variant of the perimeter which is built upon the solution of an elliptic boundary value problem. I will discuss the advantages of such a construction over local approximations, and show applications to the optimal design of supports in additive manufacturing.
