Experiences with optimizing airfoil shapes for maximum lift over drag [PDF]
The goal was to find airfoil shapes which maximize the ratio of lift over drag for given flow conditions. For a fixed Mach number, Reynolds number, and angle of attack, the lift and drag depend only on the airfoil shape.

Non‐Linear Reduced Order Modelling of Transonic Potential Flows for Fast Aerodynamic Analysis
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 2, 30 January 2026.ABSTRACT This work presents a physics‐based reduced order modelling (ROM) framework for the efficient simulation of steady transonic potential flows around aerodynamic configurations. The approach leverages proper orthogonal decomposition and a least‐squares Petrov‐Galerkin (LSPG) projection to construct intrusive ROMs for the full potential equation ...
