Computational Intelligence in Aerospace Engineering: Shanghai Jiao Tong University Press Aerospace Series

Whilst most books on computational intelligence cover general design applications, Computational Intelligence in Aerospace Design focuses in on various CI methods that can be applied to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of aerospace design through numerical simulation. With a wealth of computational methods already at play in aerospace design, the application of CI techniques and elements is a natural development in the never-ending quest for optimization. Using detailed case studies and examples, author Wenbin Song takes you through the scenarios that can benefit from a CI approach and presents a consistent framework for aerospace design incorporating elements such as neural networks, fuzzy logic systems and evolutionary computation. Ideal for the engineer or researcher needing to apply computational methods without a computer science background, Computational Intelligence in Aerospace Design will help to take your aerospace modeling, simulation and optimization efforts to the next level. Detailed discussion of computational modeling, simulation and optimization methods in aerospace design, with unique aerospace-specific coverage of computational intelligence elements Case studies and examples with industrial significance help to make theory digestible for engineers and researchers without a computer science background Presents a novel framework for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of aerospace design using computational intelligence methods INDICE: Chapter 1: Introduction 1.0.
