This monograph studies optimization problems for rigid punches in elastic media and for high-speed penetration of rigid strikers into deformed elastoplastic, concrete, and composite media using variational calculations, tools from functional analysis, and stochastic and min-max (guaranteed) optimization approaches with incomplete data. The book presents analytical and numerical results developed by the authors during the last ten years.

• A detailed presentation of applications of structural optimization techniques
• Considers two concrete problems in contact mechanics and high-speed penetration
• Both the analytical and the numerical aspects of the considered problems are covered
