This all new book presents cutting edge technical information on latest advances in the field of optimal design. The book provides invaluable information from Russian activity in the field of optimal structural design. It covers the relatively recent topic of developing a consistent theory of optimal design. The maturity of modern composite technology has led, in part, to this development, and this book has a variety of chapters devoted to composite materials. The nine chapters cover subjects ranging from general formulation of the design problem, to numerical and practical methods of design, and optimal design of laminates and composites. All specialists involved in applied mathematics and mechanics, as well as structural design will find ``Optimal Design'' to be most useful.
