Breeder Genetic Algorithms for Airfoil Design Optimisation

چکیده
A new version of Genetic Algorithms, the Breeder Genetic Algorithms, has been recently proposed in literature and successfully applied to the continuous parameter optimisation. In this paper we aim to test this technique against a classical discrete Genetic Algorithm on a typical optimisation problem in Aerodynamics, the problem of determining the coordinates of an airfoil given a surface pressure distribution.

Investigating a Parallel Breeder Genetic Algorithm on the Inverse Aerodynamic Design
Breeder Genetic Algorithms represent a class of random optimisation techniques gleaned from the science of population genetics, which have proved their ability to solve hard optimisation problems with continuous parameters. In this paper we test a parallel version of this technique against a sequential Breeder Genetic Algorithm on a typical inverse design problem in Aerodynamics, the problem of...

متن کاملModeling and Multi-Objective Optimization of Stall Control on NACA0015 Airfoil with a Synthetic Jet using GMDH Type Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms
This study concerns numerical simulation, modeling and optimization of aerodynamic stall control using a synthetic jet actuator. Thenumerical simulation was carried out by a large-eddy simulation that employs a RNG-based model as the subgrid-scale model. The flow around a NACA0015 airfoil, including a synthetic jet located at 10 % of the chord, is studied under Reynolds number Re = 12.7 × 106 a...
متن کاملAirfoil Shape Optimization with Adaptive Mutation Genetic Algorithm
An efficient method for scattering Genetic Algorithm (GA) individuals in the design space is proposed to accelerate airfoil shape optimization. The method used here is based on the variation of the mutation rate for each gene of the chromosomes by taking feedback from the current population. An adaptive method for airfoil shape parameterization is also applied and its impact on the optimum desi...
متن کاملApplication of Free Form Deformation Techniques in Evolutionary Design Optimisation
1. Abstract In the past decades evolutionary algorithms have been successfully applied to various design optimisation problems. It has been shown that the representation of the problem is crucial for a high performance of the method. One important aspect is the trade-off between the demands for a high geometric variability in shape generation and a minimum number of optimisation parameters. In ...
