Sensitivity analysis for transient heat conduction in a solid body —Part I: External boundary modification

A transient hat conduction problem within a thermal anisotropic solid body is formulated. Considering an arbitrary thermal functional defined over space and time domains, its first-order sensitivities with respect to variation of structural material parameters as well as external boundary are derived using the direct and adjoint approaches.
