Bimodal optimization with constraints: Critical value of the constraint and post-critical configurations

By using a method based on Pontryagin’s principle, formulated in [13], and [14] we study optimal shape of an elastic column with constraints on the minimal value of the cross-sectional area. We determine the critical value of the minimal cross-sectional area separating bi from unimodal optimizati...
