Multidisciplinary design optimizations have shown great benefits for aerospace applications in the past. Especially in the last decades with the advent of high speed computing. Still computational time limits the desire for models with high level of fidelity cannot be always fulfilled. As a conse- quence, fidelity is often sacrificed in order to...

A design methodology for composite space enclosures was generated. As a result a panel of an electronics housing structure, as part of a general satellite traversing both GEO and LEO, was designed and optimized. A mass saving of 18% was achieved over a conventional aluminum panel, while assuring structural integrity for acceleration loads,...

Traditionally, the aircraft design process is divided into three phases: conceptual, preliminary and detailed design. In each subsequent phase, the fidelity of the analysis tools increases and more and more details of the design geometry are frozen. In each phase a number of design variants is generated, fully analyzing them with the tools...
