The research of the shape of a solid body, sufficiently strong with respect to the loads that it must transmit, but, at the same time, the lightest as possible, is a problem that has engaged kraftmen of oldest civil societies. Many of these empirical solutions can be now justified through Calculus of Variations. But the must surprising fact is that even in nature the arrangement of branches of plants, of wooder fibres, of bones of vertebrates, seem to have anticipated variational solutions through a slow evolutionary process.
