State-of-the-art in aerodynamic shape optimisation methods
Aerodynamic optimisation has become an indispensable component for any aerodynamic design over the past 60 years, with applications to aircraft, cars, trains, bridges, wind turbines, internal pipe flows, and cavities, among others, and is thus relevant in many facets of technology. With advancements in computational power, automated design optimisation procedures have become more competent, however, there is an ambiguity and bias throughout the literature with regards to relative performance of optimisation architectures and employed algorithms. This paper provides a well-balanced critical review of the dominant optimisation approaches that have been integrated with aerodynamic theory for the purpose of shape optimisation. A total of 229 papers, published in more than 120 journals and conference proceedings, have been classified into 6 different optimisation algorithm approaches. The material cited includes some of the most well-established authors and publications in the field of aerodynamic optimisation. This paper aims to eliminate bias toward certain algorithms by analysing the limitations, drawbacks, and the benefits of the most utilised optimisation approaches. This review provides comprehensive but straightforward insight for non-specialists and reference detailing the current state for specialist practitioners
Superiorization and Perturbation Resilience of Algorithms: A Continuously Updated Bibliography
This document presents a, (mostly) chronologically ordered, bibliography of
scientific publications on the superiorization methodology and perturbation
resilience of algorithms which is compiled and continuously updated by us at:
http://math.haifa.ac.il/yair/bib-superiorization-censor.html. Since the
beginings of this topic we try to trace the work that has been published about
it since its inception. To the best of our knowledge this bibliography
represents all available publications on this topic to date, and while the URL
is continuously updated we will revise this document and bring it up to date on
arXiv approximately once a year. Abstracts of the cited works, and some links
and downloadable files of preprints or reprints are available on the above
mentioned Internet page. If you know of a related scientific work in any form
that should be included here kindly write to me on: [email protected] with
