Wing Planform Optimization via an Adjoint Method
This dissertation focuses on the problem of wing planform optimization for transonic aircraft based on flow simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) combined with an adjoint-gradient based numerical optimization procedure. The adjoint method, traditionally used for wing section design has been extended to cover planform variations and to compute the sensitivities of the structural wei...
متن کاملAn Adjoint Method for Design Optimization of Ship Hulls
We present a design optimization method for reducing the wave resistance (drag) of surface piercing hulls. Since this component of the drag is directly related to the energy contained in the wave structure that extends behind the ship, a fully coupled calculation of the flow field and wave evolution equation is required. The method combines the authors’ efficient automatic shape optimization te...
متن کاملAerodynamic Shape Optimization Using the Adjoint Method
These Lecture Notes review the formulation and application of optimization techniques based on control theory for aerodynamic shape design in both inviscid and viscous compressible flow. The theory is applied to a system defined by the partial differential equations of the flow, with the boundary shape acting as the control. The Frechet derivative of the cost function is determined via the solu...
متن کاملAn adjoint method for channel localization.
Single cells learn by tuning their synaptic conductances and redistributing their excitable machinery. To reveal its learning rules, one must therefore know how the cell remaps its ion channels in response to physiological stimuli. We here develop an adjoint approach for discerning the non-uniform distribution of a given channel type from knowledge of the time course of membrane potential at tw...
متن کاملAdjoint method for a tumor growth PDE-constrained optimization problem
In this paper we present a method for estimating unknown parameters that appear on an avascular, spheric tumour growth model. The model for the tumour is based on nutrient driven growth of a continuum of live cells, whose birth and death generate volume changes described by a velocity field. The model consists on a coupled system of partial differential equations whose spatial domain is the tum...
