## 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

A general approach to shape design sensitivity analysis and optimal design for dynamic transient and free vibration problems using boundary elements is presented. The material derivatives and the adjoint system method are applied to obtain first-order sensitivities for the effect of boundary shape v
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
