Presented is a review of shape optimal design and shape design sensitivity analysis with an emphasis on techniques dealing with shape of the boundaries of two- and three-dimensional bodies. Attention is focused on the continuum structural shape optimization based on numerical models by either finite elements or boundary elements. This requires sophisticated design sensitivity analysis techniques and a careful choice of design variables.
