Computational Methods for Optimal Design and Control: Proceedings of the AFOSR Workshop on Optimal Design and Control Arlington, Virginia 30 September–3 October, 1997

This volume contains the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Optimal Design and Control, held in Arlington, Virginia, USA, in October 1997. The workshop was a gathering of engineers and mathematicians involved in research in control and optimization, with the emphasis placed on optimal design problems governed by partial differential inequalities. The issues presented have applications to aerodynamic design, fluid flows, materials processing, inverse design and feedback control.
