The Variational Analysis and Aerospace Engineering conference held in Erice, Italy in September 2007 at International School of Mathematics, Guido Stampacchia provided a platform for aerospace engineers and mathematicians to discuss the problems requiring an extensive application of mathematics. This work contains papers presented at the workshop.

Shape optimization problems are treated from the classical and modern perspectives. This title is suitable for graduate students in pure and applied mathematics, as well as engineers requiring a mathematical basis for the solution of practical problems.

Recently much attention has been devoted to the optimization of transportation networks in a given geographic area. the network's sources and sinks) are known, as well as the costs of movement with/without the network, and the cost of constructing/maintaining it.
