Abstract The minimum-weight design of elastic rotating disks under various design criteria has been studied using ideas of dynamic programming and invariant imbedding. It is shown that the criterion of minimum potential energy furnishes a remarkably simple solution in terms of a linear partial differential equation subject to initial conditions. The treatment of more general design constraints leads to the development of a number of stable, two-sweep iterative procedures. A series of numerical examples incorporating various design constraints is presented to show the accuracy and feasibility of the method. The sensitivity of the radial stresses to small changes in the thickness of the disk is noticed. On the other hand, the high stability of the volume with respect to the design criteria is stressed.
