Introduction to optimization methods and tools for multidisciplinary design in Aeronautics and Turbomachinery
This course intends to provide the basic concepts and tools for single-discipline (single-point and multi-point) and multidisciplinary (interaction of fluid-structure, fluid-acoustics, conjugated heat transfer) optimization. Topics which will be treated in detail include: gradient based and steepest descent methods, methods based on adjoint equation, evolutionary/genetic algorithms, concept of pareto front, game strategy, fast approximation methods (Radial Basis functions, Artificial Neural Networks, Kriging), robust design.
