DESCRIPTION:
From the Back Cover Over the last fifty years, the ability to carry out analysis as a precursor to decision making in engineering design has increased dramatically. This text explores how computer-aided analysis has revolutionized aerospace engineering, providing a comprehensive coverage of the latest technologies underpinning advanced computational design. It will also be useful for practising engineers and researchers working on computational approaches to design.Cover image reproduced by kind permission of Andreas Sóbester.. Worked case studies and over 500 references to the primary research literature allow the reader to gain a full understanding of the technology, giving a valuable insight into the world
"should be a requirement in aerospace engineering curriculum" according to Keiichi Ito. Covers most of the problems encountered in the process of computational design optimization, such as the curse of dimensionality, time consuming objective functions, sparce data, uncertainties, etc. The broad and succinct coverage of different optimization and modeling techniques (function approximation or surrogate models) in one volume is quite a remarkable achievement.

This text explores how computer-aided analysis has revolutionized aerospace engineering, providing a comprehensive coverage of the latest technologies underpinning advanced computational design. It will also be useful for practising engineers and researchers working on computational approaches to design.. In particular, the advent of modern computing systems and the development of advanced numerical methods have made computational modelling a vital tool for producing optimized designs. Over the last fifty years, the ability to carry out analysis as a precursor to decision making in engineering design has increased dramatically. Worked case studies and over 500 references to the primary research literature allow the reader to gain a full understanding of the technology, giving a valuable insight into the world’s most complex engineering systems.Key Features:Includes background information on the history of aerospace design and established optimization, geometrical and mathematical modelling techniques, setting recent engineering developments in a relevant context.Examines the latest methods such as evoluti
