Abstract
Shape optimization of airfoils is of primary importance in the design of aircraft and turbomachinery with computational fluid dynamic (CFD) being the major design tool. However, as CFD simulation of the fluid flow past airfoils is computationally expensive, and numerical optimization often requires a large number of simulations with several design variables, direct optimization may not be practical. This chapter describes a computationally...
