A framework for simultaneous aerodynamic design optimization in the presence of chaos
Integrating existing solvers for unsteady partial differential equations (PDEs) into a simultaneous optimization method is challenging due to the forward- in-time information propagation of classical time-stepping methods. This paper applies the simultaneous single-step one-shot optimization method to a reformulated unsteady PDE constraint that allows for both forward- and backward-in-time information propagation. Especially in the presence … Read more
