Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2L 3GI
Aims and Scope of the Series
The fundamental questions arising in mechanics are: Why?, How?, and How much?
The aim of this series is to provide lucid accounts written by authoritative research
ers giving vision and insight in answering these questions on the subject of
mechanics as it relates to solids.
The scope of the series covers the entire spectrum of solid mechanics. Thus it
includes the foundation of mechanics; variational formulations; computational
mechanics; statics, kinematics and dynamics of rigid and elastic bodies; vibrations
of solids and structures; dynamical systems and chaos; the theories of elasticity,
plasticity and viscoelasticity; composite materials; rods, beams, shells and
membranes; structural control and stability; soils, rocks and geomechanics;
fracture; tribology; experimental mechanics; biomechanics and machine design.
The median level of presentation is the first year graduate student. Some texts are
monographs defining the current state of the field; others are accessible to final
year undergraduates; but essentially the emphasis is on readability and clarity.
For a list o/related mechanics titles, see final pages.

PREFACE
The International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) initiated and
sponsored an International Symposium on Optimization of Mechanical Systems held
in 1995 in Stuttgart, Germany. The Symposium was intended to bring together scientists
working in different fields of optimization to exchange ideas and to discuss new trends
with special emphasis on multi body systems.
A Scientific Committee was appointed by the Bureau of IUTAM with the following
members:
S. Arimoto (Japan)
EL. Chernousko (Russia)
M. Geradin (Belgium)
E.J. Haug (U.S.A.)
C.A.M. Soares (Portugal)
N. Olhoff (Denmark)
W.O. Schiehlen (Germany, Chairman)
K. Schittkowski (Germany)
R.S. Sharp (U.K.)
W. Stadler (U.S.A.)
H.-B. Zhao (China)
This committee selected the participants to be invited and the papers to be presented
at the Symposium. As a result of this procedure, 90 active scientific participants from
20 countries followed the invitation, and 49 papers were presented in lecture and poster
sessions.
The scientific lectures were devoted to the following topics:
o Modeling and Optimization of Multibody Systems
o Design of Mechanisms
o Sensitivity Analysis of Multibody Systems
o Optimization of Mechanical Systems
o Optimal Motion Control
o Optimization in Structural Mechanics
o Optimal Design of Materials
o Applications in Engineering
x PREFACE
o Selected Problems in Optimization
o Optimization Methods and Algorithms
o Multicriteria Optimization
Since many of the presentations are related to more than one of these topics, the papers
in this volume are arranged in alphabetical order with respect to the first author. The
papers indicate the wide scope of engineering applications of optimization methods and
show some first steps of using sensitivity analysis and optimization in the design of
dynamic systems. The presentations and discussions during the Symposium will cer
tainly stimulate further theoretical and applied investigations in this challenging field
of optimization. The publication of the proceedings may promote this development.
Generous financial and material support contributed to the success of the Symposium.
The help of the following sponsors is gratefully acknowledged:

The success of the Symposium would not have been possible without the excellent work
of the Local Organizing Committee. Members of the Committee were:
W.O. Schiehlen (Chairman), R. Prommersberger (Secretary),
D. Bestle, P. Eberhard, A. Eiber, L. Gaul, E. Ramm, K.H. Well.
In addition, sincere thanks are due to all the members of the Institute B of Mechanics
of the University of Stuttgart, all of them contributed to the success of the Symposium.
