Abstract
By reformulating a typical optimal design problem in a variational format, we are able to prove existence results in a rather general framework allowi ng non-linear state equations and costs functional depending on derivatives of states. In this work, we restrict attention to the one-dimensional situ ation. (C) 2001 Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
