[For part I see ibid. 19, 677-692 (1983; Zbl 0515.73085).] In the work the basic approach to sensitivity analysis with respect to design functions varying within a specified domain is discussed. For a linear elastic structure, the first variation of arbitrary stress, strain and displacement functionals corresponding to the shape of external boundaries or interfaces is derived by using the solutions for primary and adjoint systems. The application to optimal design is next presented and the relevant optimality conditions are derived from general expressions.
