Variational Principles of Continuum Mechanics with Engineering Applications, Volume 2: Introduction to Optimal Design Theory

The study of variational problems usually
starts with the optimization of some functional
J(f),where f belongs to a class of admissible
functions defined in a fixed region S^2 of a
Euclidean space and obeys certain a-priori
specified constraints. The problem of minimizing
J(f(x)), x e c, is equivalent to finding a soluution
f(x) to an equation L(f) = q where L is,
generally a differential operator and q is a
known function. More frequently problems modeled
by some differential equations are formulated in
a "variational form". Instead of "solving" a
differential system one can attempt to find a
function that assigns an extremal value to a
functional.
