Abstract

To implement multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) for the airframe/propulsion integration of hypersonic vehicles, this study provided a disciplinary design structure matrix based on the analysis of coupling relationships among disciplines. The decomposition and coordination strategies of the co-evolutionary method were used to decompose the coupling system for airframe/propulsion integration into multidisciplinary systems that were relatively independent and autonomous. The system level optimization model and disciplinary optimization models for airframe/propulsion integration were established. The multi-objective multidisciplinary problem of airframe/propulsion integration for a hypersonic vehicle was analyzed by employing the co-evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithm. This yielded a satisfactory pareto optimal solution set and offers guidance for the overall design of hypersonic vehicles.
