Abstract: In this paper a Blaschke-Santal'o diagram involving the area, the perimeter and the elastic energy of planar convex bodies is considered. More precisely we give a description of set ${\displaystyle }$mathcal{E}:=left{(x,y)in R^2, x=frac{4pi A(Omega)}{P(Omega)^2},y=frac{E(Omega)P(Omega)}{2pi^2},,Omegambox{convex} ight},${\displaystyle }$ where $A$ is the area, $P$ is the perimeter and $E$ is the elastic energy, that is a Willmore type energy in the plane. In order to do this, we investigate the following shape optimization problem: ${\displaystyle }$min_{Omegainmathcal{C}}{E(Omega)+mu A(Omega)},${\displaystyle }$ where $mathcalC$ is the class of convex bodies with fixed perimeter and $muge0$ is a parameter. Existence, regularity and geometric properties of solutions to this minimum problem are shown.
