Shape optimization of a Timoshenko beam together with an elastic foundation

In this article we are going first to aim at the variational ormulation of the bending problem for the Timoshenko beam model. Afterwards we will extend this problem to the Timoshenko beam resting on the Winkler foundation, which is firmly connected with the beam. Hereafter a shape optimization for...
