Sensitivity Analysis and Design Optimization through Automatic Differentiation
Automatic, or algorithmic, differentiation (AD) is a technique for transforming a program or subprogram that can be interpreted as computing a mathematical function, including arbitrarily complex simulation codes, into one that computes the derivatives of that function. We describe the implementation and application of automatic differentiation tools. We highlight recent advances in the combina...
متن کاملDeriving Linear and Adjoint Codes for CFD using Automatic Differentiation
Sensitivity analysis is a research area of increasing interest within CFD. Recent developments in Automatic Differentiation software (AD) make the discrete adjoint methods particularly attractive. We outline the theory of adjoint sensitivities and discuss how to use AD to derive adjoint versions from CFD codes. In particular we review the properties of the four major AD packages, we explain how...
متن کاملAutomatic Differentiation of Advanced Cfd Codes for Multidisciplinary Design
Automated multidisciplinary design of aircraft and other ight vehicles requires the optimization of complex performance objectives with respect to a number of design parameters and constraints. The e ect of these independent design variables on the system performance criteria can be quanti ed in terms of sensitivity derivatives which must be calculated and propagated by the individual disciplin...
متن کاملAIAA 96–0409 Automatic Aerodynamic Optimization on Distributed Memory Architectures
This paper presents a parallel implementation of an automatic Euler design method based on the control theory of systems governed by partial differential equations. The Euler equations and the resulting adjoint equations necessary to calculate the Frechet derivatives for the gradient of the cost function are solved using a domain decomposition approach with communication handled by the MPI (Mes...
متن کاملCFD Analysis on Aerodynamic Design Optimization of Wind Turbine Rotor Blades
Wind energy has been shown to be one of the most viable sources of renewable energy. With current technology, the low cost of wind energy is competitive with more conventional sources of energy such as coal. Most blades available for commercial grade wind turbines incorporate a straight span-wise profile and airfoil shaped cross sections. These blades are found to be very efficient at lower win...
