Abstract

Abstract This chapter gives basic information about those aspects which make structural shape optimization different from other problem types of optimization. It concentrates on those topics which deal with the control of shape (continuous and parametric), the regularization of problem formulation, the treatment of the infinity of design space and some further aspects which are specific to numerical and parametric shape optimization. As a consequence, there is little presented about general optimization theory or algorithms, or specific aspects of implementation and applications are restricted to typical, illustrative examples. In particular, a unified approach is displayed which allows to see the floating transition between free shape optimization and computer aided design‐based parametric shape optimization on a sound theoretical basis.
