ACCELERATED AIRFOIL OPTIMIZATION VIA VIBRATIONAL GENETIC ALGORITHM
Havacılık ve Uzay Teknolojileri Dergisi, 2003 Transonic airfoil optimization is made for drag minimisation through shock wave reduction. In this study, a new approach to genetic algorithms, called Vibrational Genetic Algorithm (VGA), is used for transonic airfoil optimization.
