Optimal Structural Design deals with all aspects of shape optimization, parametric, geometric and topological, and gives a large place to numerical algorithms, gradient methods and stochastic methods (with an original contribution by Marc Schoenauer for this last point). In particular, most of the structural optimization algorithms have been implemented in the FreeFem ++ finite element software and the programs are freely available on the web. Optimal structural design is devoted to structural or shape optimization and is intended for a mixed audience of applied mathematicians and mechanicians. It discusses parametric, geometric and topology optimization and gives deterministic and stochastic numerical algorithms (implemented in the FreeFem ++ finite element software).
