Gradient-Based Aero-Stealth Optimization of a Simplified Aircraft

Modern fighter aircraft increasingly need to conjugate aerodynamic performance and low observability. In this paper, we showcase a methodology for a gradient-based bidisciplinary aero-stealth optimization. The shape of the aircraft is parameterized with the help of a CAD modeler, and we optimize it...
