In engineering, for example in building a

bridge, the goal is often to minimize

material usage (minimize cost) while

maintaining safety and functionality.

This is where optimization techniques

involving calculus come into play.

DESIGN OPTIMIZATION

Calculus optimization involves finding the maximum or minimum values of a function under certain constraints. In this context, Lagrange multipliers are used to identify the point where the function is optimized and the constraint intersect, assisting engineers in identifying the precise material combination that achieves the strongest and most cost-effective structure
