Multidisciplinary multifidelity optimisation of flexible wing aerofoils by passive adaptivity

This thesis is directed at developing and assessing a multifidelity model-based methodology for the flight performance analysis and multidisciplinary optimisation of flexible wing aerofoils. Such a strategy is pursued because of the high computational cost involved of solving such optimisation probl...
