The shapes of things : a practical guide to differential geometry and the shape derivative / Shawn W. Walker, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Many things around us have properties that depend on their shape--for example, the drag characteristics of a rigid body in a flow. This self-contained overview of differential geometry explains how to differentiate a function (in the calculus sense) with respect to a "shape variable." This...
