In this paper, a design sensitivity analysis (DSA) method for fatigue life of 3-D solid structural components of mecanical systems with respect to shape design parameters is presented. The DSA method uses dynamic stress DSA obtained using an analytical approach to predict dynamic stress increment du

## SlJMMARY An efficient method is developed for sensitivity analysis in shapc optimization of axisymmetric structures. The technique of isoparametric mapping is used to generate the finite element mesh from a small set of master clemcnts and master nodes. Co-ordinates of selected master nodes are
In this paper the shape optimization problem for an inelastic case by the hybrid utilization of the BEM and design sensitivity analysis is examined. Gourevich's model for describing the inelastic behaviour of the solid is used. As a numerical example, the problem for determining the optimal shape of
Sensitivity analysis for non-linear elastic structures in regular and critical states is ΓΏrst discussed including design parameters and initial imperfections. Next, the optimal design problem is formulated by considering imperfect structures and setting constraints on de ections and stresses. For st
