OPTIONS FOR ROBUST AIRFOIL OPTIMIZATION UNDER UNCERTAINTY

open access: yes, 2008
A robust optimization method is developed to overcome point-optimization at the sampled design points. This method combines the best features from several preliminary methods proposed by the authors and their colleagues.

Airfoil Optimization for vertical axis wind turbines

open access: yes, 2015
This thesis addresses the process of airfoil optimization for vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT). The airfoils are designed for large scale turbines above 5 MW.

An Integrated Method for Airfoil Optimization

open access: yes, 2017
Design exploration and optimization is a large part of the initial engineering and design process. To evaluate the aerodynamic performance of a design, viscous Navier-Stokes solvers can be used.

Sensitivity analysis for multidisciplinary design optmization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
When designing a complex industrial product, the designer often has to optimise simultaneously multiple conflicting criteria. Such a problem does not usually have a unique solution, but a set of non-dominated solutions known as Pareto solutions.

A Novel Global Optimization Algorithm and Its Application to Airfoil Optimization

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, a novel global optimization algorithm has been developed, which is named as particle swarm optimization combined with particle generator (PSO-PG). In PSO-PG, a PG was introduced to iteratively generate the initial particles for PSO.

Airfoil optimization with efficient gradient calculations

open access: yes, 1991
The viscous airfoil design analysis code XFOIL was extended to allow optimization using conformal mapping coefficients as design variables. The optimization technique used was the Steepest Descent method applied to a Penalty Function.

Robust design methodologies: application to compressor blades

open access: yes, 2006
Compressor blades are subtle aerodynamic shapes designed after years of research and insight. They inevitably show deviations from their desired shapes due to manufacturing errors, erosion or foreign object damage.
