Optimization in Conceptual Design of a BWB UAV Using an Adaptive Kriging‐Based Surrogate Model

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
An adaptive Kriging‐based framework for Blended Wing Body UAV optimization is presented. The exploitation‐oriented strategy yields a 14.5% range improvement, while sensitivity analysis identifies fuel mass as the dominant parameter for efficient conceptual design. ABSTRACT To improve optimization efficiency in the conceptual design of Blended Wing Body
