This book addresses the formulation, approximation and numerical solution of optimal shape design problems: from the continuous model through its discretization

A text devoted to the mathematical basis of optimal shape design, to finite element approximation and to numerical realization by applying optimization techniqu

The efficiency and reliability of manufactured products depend on, among other things, geometrical aspects; it is therefore not surprising that optimal shape de

In the past, the possibilities of structural optimization were restricted to an optimal choice of profiles and shape. Further improvement can be obtained by sel

This book provides theories on non-parametric shape optimization problems, systematically keeping in mind readers with an engineering background. Non-parametric
