Media type: E-Article Title: On a problem of minimum weight design Contributor: Mróz, Zenon Published: American Mathematical Society (AMS), 1961 Published in: Quarterly of Applied Mathematics, 19 (1961) 2, Seite 127-135 Language: English DOI: 10.1090/qam/135327 ISSN: 0033-569X; 1552-4485 Keywords: Applied Mathematics Origination: Footnote: Description: A problem of optimal design for perfectly plastic, isotropic structures is analyzed. It is shown that for such structures as plates or shells, an extremum of the volume, if it exists, is either a local maximum or a minimum. Access State: Open Access
