Shape Optimization of a Body Located in Viscous Flows Using Acoustic Velocity Method

The purpose of this study is to find an optimal shape of a body located in viscous flows using the acoustic velocity method. The optimal shape is defined such as to minimize fluid forces acting on the body. The formulation is based on an optimal control theory, in which a performance function is exp...
