Airfoil Lift Coefficient Optimization Using Genetic Algorithm and IGP Parameterization: Volume 1

The objective of this study is to develop a genetic algorithm that uses the IGP parameterization to increase the lift coefficient (C_L) of three airfoils to be used on wings of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The geometry of three baseline airfoils was modified by developing a...
