Enhanced Collaborative Optimization: Application to an Analytic Test Problem and Aircraft Design
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper provides an introduction to a new method for distributed optimization based on collaborative optimization, a decomposition-based method for the optimization of complex multidisciplinary designs. The key idea in this approach is to include models of the global objective and all of the subspace constraints in each subspace optimization problem while maintaining the low dimensionality of the system level (coordination) problem. Results from an analytic test case and an aircraft family design problem suggest that the new approach is robust and leads to a substantial reduction in computational effort.

متن کاملAircraft Family Design Using Decomposition-Based Methods
This paper explores the use of decomposition-based methods for aircraft family design. The traditional approach in multidisciplinary design optimization is to decompose a problem along disciplinary lines. For aircraft family design problems, a more natural approach is decomposition by individual aircraft. This decomposition facilitates the concurrent development of several aircraft variants, pr...
