Abstract
Shape optimization with the Finite Element Method is a very powerful tool for minimizing stress concentration in machine components. The aim is to find shapes of domains so that the stress field at the critical boundary has a special characteristic. This is important because stress optimal machine components show a better fatigue behaviour if they are used in the low frequency region.
