Structural optimization and its interaction with aerodynamic optimization for a high speed civil transport wing

A variable-complexity design strategy with combined aerodynamic and structural optimization procedures is presented for the high speed civil transport design (HSCT). Variable-complexity analysis methods are used to reduce the computational expense. A finite element-model based structural optimizatio...
