Discrete adjoint-based simultaneous analysis and design approach for conceptual aerodynamic optimization (2017)
Journal Article
Sugar-Gabor, O. (2017). Discrete adjoint-based simultaneous analysis and design approach for conceptual aerodynamic optimization. Incas Bulletin, 9(3), 133-147. https://doi.org/10.13111/2066-8201.2017.9.3.11

In this paper, a simultaneous analysis and design method is derived and applied for a non-linear constrained aerodynamic optimization problem. The method is based on the approach of defining a Lagrange functional based on the objective function and t...

In this paper, an ‘in-house’ genetic algorithm is described and applied to an optimization problem for improving the aerodynamic performances of an aircraft wing tip through upper surface morphing. The algorithm’s performances were studied from the c...
