Challenge
Meet industrial objectives in terms of:
- Competitiveness: by reducing development time and cost but also the cost of manufacture
- Environment: by designing more efficient engine and aircraft configurations with better multidisciplinary compromises, fostering the integration of greener technologies

Address industrial needs of competitive design:
- Increase the CAPABILITY of MDO with HiFi simulations to reinforce its impact on current and future design objectives considering a large number of design parameters, and faster integration of new materials and/or unconventional design solutions
- Improve the EFFICIENCY of the MDO process based on adjoint solvers to obtain results in reduced time
- Enhance the USABILITY of key technologies that will reduce the time and complexity for the user or designer to set up a complete optimisation problem

Demonstrate the benefits of adjoint-based MDO for:

wing/fuselage aero-structure interactions
Airframe
Wing/Fuselage


air inlet, propeller or fan blades aero-acoustics interactions
Airframe/engine interactions


FAN AND HIGH-PRESSURE TURBINE WITH AERO-STRUCTURE AND AERO-THERMAL INTERACTIONS
Engine components

Demonstrate the benefits of adjoint-based MDO for:
- Airframe: wing/fuselage aero-structure interactions
- Airframe/engine interactions: air inlet, propeller or fan blades aero-acoustics interactions
- Engine: fan and high-pressure turbine with very stringent aero-structure and aero-thermal interactions
