✦ Synopsis


A new approach for optimal shape design based on a CAD-free framework for shape and unstructured mesh deformations, automatic differentiation for the gradient computation and mesh adaption by metric control in 2D is presented. The CAD-free framework is shown to be particularly convenient for optimization when the mesh connectivities and control space size are variable during optimization. Constrained optimization for a transonic regime has been investigated in both 2D and 3D.
