SUMMARY:Using Optimization Process to Determine Aircraft Configuration in t
 he Conceptual Design Phase
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Shay Arzi\n Faculty:Department of Aerospace Engineerin
 g\n Institute:Technion – Israel Institute of Technology\n Location:Class
 room 165\, ground floor\, Library\, Aerospace Eng.\n Zoom: \n Abstract: \n
  Details: \n The early phases of a new project are the optimal time to per
 form major changes in the design configuration. The cost of such changes a
 t these stages is minimal while the ability to perform them is high. For t
 his reason\, conducting a productive conceptual design phase is very impor
 tant.\nThis study presents a method for improving the conceptual design ph
 ase at the beginning of a new aircraft project. The method is constructed 
 of a multi-disciplinary design optimization program combined with a sugges
 ted work process to enable a more productive conceptual design phase. The 
 optimization program enables to perform initial analysis of many aircraft 
 configurations in order to better understand the design space. The program
  is given the aircraft requirement set as an input (required speed\, requi
 red range\, ...) and performs initial evaluation of various analysis inclu
 ding geometry\, aerodynamic\, weight\, propulsion and performance. The pro
 gram enables to estimate the value of many aircraft designs and allow the 
 user to better understand the design space before choosing a preferred ini
 tial design configuration. With the use of the optimization program and th
 e suggested work process\, a user can better define a preferred design con
 figuration to best meet the project requirements. After using the program\
 , the engineering team can initiate the program with a better design that 
 will enable to shorten the iteration process.
