IUTAM symposium on topological design optimization of structures, machines and materials ; Status and perspectives

Contains the refereed and edited versions of papers presented at the IUTAM Symposium on Topological Design Optimization of Structures. The IUTAM Symposium provided a forum for the exchange of ideas for - ture developments in the area of topological design optimization. This enc- passed the application to ?uid-solid interaction problems, acoustics problems, and to problems in biomechanics, as well as to other multiphysics problems.
