Zusammenfassunġ

Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem optimalen Entwurf eines elastischen Tragwerks für mehrere Belastungszustände und vorgeschriebene Gesamtsteifigkeit. Frühere Ergebnisse werden verallgemeinert zwecks Aufstellung notwendiger und hinreichender Optimalitätsbedingungen für konvexe spezifische Kostenfunktionen. Eine Methode der optimalen Bemessung wird beschrieben und an Beispielen erläutert.
