Abstract :
This paper presents a completely Lagrangian approach which is able to solve shape inverse (optimization and identification) electromagnetic problems. A first order deterministic minimization technique combined with Lagrangian finite element approach is used. Theoretical and numerical advantages and drawbacks of such a method are discussed, and some applications are presented
