## 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
This paper describes the implementation of a parametric optimization process in the ยฎeld of composite structure design. The application concerns alpine skis. Using a reference ski, the process enables the calculation of the optimum shapes for a complete range of skis and checks their behaviour on sn
