Multidisciplinary Design Optimization of Multi-Stage Launch Vehicle using Flight Phases Decomposition
Optimal design of launch vehicles is a complex multidisciplinary problem. The traditional way to optimize such vehicles is to decompose the problem into the different disciplines and to combine specific solvers and a global optimizer. This paper presents a new MDO method to optimize the configuratio...
