Aircraft wing optimization using B-spline models and panel methods

Creator:

Jackson, Danielle Monique

Abstract:

This research investigates shape optimization process, using b-spline models and panel methods, to achieve a high lift to drag ratio for an aerodynamic structure. This research is a proof of concept for further research in aerodynamic shape optimization. The coupled process, involving the design and optimization of a random shape,...

Masters Thesis
Machine learning in engineering : techniques to speed up numerical optimization

Creator:

Cerbone, G. (Giuseppe)

Abstract:

Many important application problems in engineering can be formalized as nonlinear optimization tasks. However, numerical methods for solving such problems are brittle and do not scale well. For example, these methods depend critically on choosing a good starting point from which to perform the optimization search. In high-dimensional spaces, numerical...
