From the reviews: This is an introductory book about optimal design of structures, or shape optimization, as the domain is also called. It is mainly designed for applied mathematicians and mechanicians interested in numerics. It describes the three main approaches in shape optimization (parametrical, geometrical and topological) and presents numerical algorithms, gradient methods and stochastic methods . A large number of references is provided at the end of each chapter. (Anca-Maria Toader, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2008 c) This book corresponds to lectures given by the author at Ecole Polytechnique, France. It gives a wide overview of problems and methods in shape optimization. an excellent introduction in this field and it may concern a large audience going from engineers dealing with problems in structural mechanics to researchers interested by numerical calculations in shape optimization. is nicely written and its reading is very pleasant. no other text book in this field gives a so wide overview in less than 300 pages.
