Abstract :
In this paper, the problem of designing the shape of a resonant device for minimum mass under multiple frequency and manufacturing constraints, is considered. An optimality criterion method has been used in optimization. The developed program is designed to interface and exploit the results of a commercial finite element code, ANSYS
