The paper is concerned with an optimal design problem for a hyperelast
ic rod. The function describing the position of a point at the line of
rod cross-section centroids in its reference configuration is the var
iable subject to optimization. The necessary optimality condition is f
ormulated. The continuation method combined with the gradient descent
algorithm are employed to solve this problem numerically. Numerical re
sults are provided.
