Structural and shape optimization in aerodynamic airfoil performance: literature review
Abstract
Aerodynamic airfoil performance has been subject to research from the beginning of aviation itself. Oversimplifying, airfoil shape generates the lift and drag forces, and the goal of airfoil design consists in to minimize the drag force (under certain conditions) while achieving an appropriate lift without massive flow separation (boundary layer shedding) fulfilling possible limitations on the lifting force, pitching moment, and structural requirements.[...]
