Abstract
This study proposes a sensitivity analysis framework for Transverse Magnetic polarized electromagnetic scattering problems, with a focus on Perfectly Electric Conductors (PEC). To enable seamless integration of Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Engineering, the isogeometric boundary element method based on the Galerkin scheme is employed. This method utilizes Non-Uniform Rational B-splines to represent geometries and unknown physical fields. A direct differentiation formulation is derived to evaluate the sensitivity of the Radar Cross Section (RCS) with respect to shape design variables and incident wave angles. The accuracy and effectiveness of the algorithm are validated through numerical examples.
