Add to basketThe study of shape optimization problems encompasses a wide spectrum of academic research with numerous applications to the real world. In this work these problems are treated from both the classical and modern perspectives and target a broad audience of graduate students in pure and applied mathematics, as well as engineers requiring a solid mathematical basis for the solution of practical problems.
Key topics and features:
* Presents foundational introduction to shape optimization theory
* Studies certain classical problems: the isoperimetric problem and the Newton problem involving the best aerodynamical shape, and optimization problems over classes of convex domains
* Treats optimal control problems under a general scheme, giving a topological framework, a survey of "gamma"-convergence, and problems governed by ODE
* Examines shape optimization problems with Dirichlet and Neumann conditions on the free boundary, along with the existence of classical solutions
* Studies optimization problems for obstacles and eigenvalues of elliptic operators
* Poses several open problems for further research
* Substantial bibliography and index
Driven by good examples and illustrations and requiring only a standard knowledge in the calculus of variations, differential equations, and functional analysis, the book can serve as a text for a graduate course in computational methods of optimal design and optimization, as well as an excellent reference for applied mathematicians addressing functional shape optimization problems.
