Using boundary element method, this paper deals with sensitivity analysis of different functionals appearing in optimum shape design in elasticity. A general procedure is shown for strain calculation based on some results from differential geometry of surfaces. A computational treatment independent of the design variables is presented, determining nodal values of design velocity and taking advantage of the boundary element approximation. The accuracy of the proposed procedure is assessed through several numerical examples.
