The Multi-Disciplinary Design Optimisation (MDO) process can be supported by partial automation of analysis and optimisation steps. Design and Engineering Engines (DEE) are useful concepts to structure this type of automation. Within the DEE, a product can be parameterically defined using Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE). This parameteric...

A new parametrization method for aircraft shapes is presented to enhance shape optimization for aircraft design. This parametrization method was implemented in a tool that creates feasible initial solutions for multidisciplinary design optimization problems. The tool combines all aspects of the aerodynamic design process: parametrization, aero...

Wire harness design is an increasingly complex task. Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) and optimization techniques can be used to support designers in handling this complexity. The wire harness design process can be divided in three main parts, namely electrical design, configuration design and geometrical routing. This paper describes the...

An optimization framework for aerodynamic design on unstructured meshes has been implemented. It includes a finite volume solver based upon a median-dual discretization, its discrete adjoint, and shape parameterization and mesh moving/deforming algorithms. The framework elements are coupled and linked to a Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP)...

This paper will demonstrate the potential of the Class-Shape-Refinement-Transformation (CSRT) method for aerodynamically optimizing three-dimensional surfaces. The CSRT method was coupled to an in-house Euler solver and this combination was used in an optimization framework to optimize the ONERA M6 wing in transonic conditions. The gradients of...

Next generations of civil transport aircraft will need to be evaluated not only against their behaviour as an aircraft system but also as a part of the larger air transport system. In addition to this are the sustainability issues related to for instance noise and emissions, represented by environmental impact. Both issues mandate the...

The paper is associated with the integration of multi-disciplinary knowledge within a Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE)-enabled design framework. To support this integration effort, the KNOMAD methodology has been devised. KNOMAD stands for Knowledge Optimized Manufacture And Design and is a methodology for the analytical utilisation of multi...

In order to asess the merit of novel high-lift structural concepts to the design of contemporary and future transport aircraft, a highly automated design routine is elaborated. The structure, purpose and evolution of this design routine is set-out with the use of Knowledge-Based Engineering techniques. As a case-study, the automated design of...

With progress of space technology and increase of space mission demand, requirements for robustness and reliability of space systems are ever-increasing. For the whole space mission life cycle, the most important decisions are made in the conceptual design phase, so it is very crucial to take uncertainties into consideration in this initial...

Based on the use of dedicated software tools, Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) techniques are able to capture and reuse engineering product and process knowledge to reduce time and cost during product development. In this paper a conceptual design of an automatic wire harness routing application is proposed, based on KBE. As the core of this...

A novel take-off and landing system using ground based power is proposed in the EUFP7 project GABRIEL. The proposed system has the potential benefit to reduce aircraft weight, emissions and noise. A preliminary investigation of the feasibility of the structural design of the connection mechanism between aircraft and ground system has been...

This paper presents a methodology for the design of the primary flight control surfaces, in terms of size, number and location, for fixed wing aircraft (conventional or unconventional). As test case, the methodology is applied to a 300 passenger variant of the Prandtl Plane. This box wing aircraft is deemed to have low induced drag compared to...

Environmental issues play an increasingly important role in aviation, affecting the desirability of novel technologies directly. The desirability of a certain technology with respect to environmental issues is determined by the system of systems level impact instead of the often used system level impact. Changing this perspective introduces...
