{"product_id":"9781783266289","title":"Simulation-driven Aerodynamic Design Using Variable-fidelity Models","description":"\u003cp\u003eComputer simulations is a fundamental tool of the design process in many engineering disciplines including aerospace engineering. However, although high-fidelity numerical models are accurate, they can be computationally expensive with evaluation time for a single design as long as hours, days or even weeks. Simulation-driven design using conventional optimization techniques may be therefore prohibitive.This book explores the alternative: performing computationally efficient design using surrogate-based optimization, where the high-fidelity model is replaced by its computationally cheap but still reasonably accurate representation: a surrogate. The emphasis is on physics-based surrogates. Application-wise, the focus is on aerodynamics and the methods and techniques described in the book are demonstrated using aerodynamic shape optimization cases. Applications in other engineering fields are also demonstrated.State-of-the-art techniques and a depth of coverage never published before make this a unique and essential book for all researchers working in aerospace and other engineering areas and dealing with optimization, computationally expensive design problems, and simulation-driven design.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Imperial College Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47042799599856,"sku":"9781783266289","price":174.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783266289_p0.jpg?v=1763723015","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783266289","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
