Use of discrete sensitivity analysis to transform explicit simulation codes into design optimization codes

Sensitivity analysis is often used in high fidelity numerical optimization to estimate design space derivatives efficiently. Typically, explicit codes are combined with the adjoint formulation of continuous sensitivity analysis, which requires the derivation and solution of the adjoint equations alo...
