Efficient Aerodynamic Shape Optimization in MDO Context [PDF]
AbstractThe aerospace industry is increasingly relying on advanced numerical flow simulation tools in the early aircraft design phase. Today's flow solvers, which are based on the solution of the compressible Euler and Navier‐Stokes equations, are able to predict aerodynamic behaviour of aircraft components under different flow conditions quite well [1]

Efficient Aerodynamic Shape Optimization [PDF]
Since the present author first became involved in computational fluid dynamics, around 1970, the landscape has changed dramatically. At that time, panel methods had just come into use, and the world’s fastest super computer, the Control data 6600, had only 131000 words of memory (about 1 megabyte).

State-of-the-art in aerodynamic shape optimisation methods [PDF]
Aerodynamic optimisation has become an indispensable component for any aerodynamic design over the past 60 years, with applications to aircraft, cars, trains, bridges, wind turbines, internal pipe flows, and cavities, among others, and is thus relevant ...

Simultaneous pseudo‐time stepping for aerodynamic shape optimization [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper we discuss about numerical methods for aerodynamic shape optimization problems. These problems require efficient CFD techniques to solve the state (as well as costate) equations and fast algorithms for solving the optimization problems. Both of these are independent active areas of research since long time.

A CFD-informed quasi-steady model of flapping-wing aerodynamics [PDF]
Aerodynamic performance and agility during flapping flight are determined by the combination of wing shape and kinematics. The degree of morphological and kinematic optimization is unknown and depends upon a large parameter space.
