Abstract

The problem of optimum design has been studied for a long time. One of the earliest example was to find a 2-D shape which occupied the maximum area with its circumference as a given constant. Before the 1950’s classical mathematical methods such as the differential and variational methods were used to solve these problems. With digital computers and using numerical methods, the methods of optimal design developed rapidly.
