This $332,768 National Science Foundation project grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will fund the development of a new hybrid pseudo-spectral adjoint algorithm and multidisciplinary design optimization framework at the University of Michigan from September 2022 through August 2025. The algorithm and framework aim to enable the gradient-based MDO of large-scale engineered systems governed by unsteady processes. Specifically, the project will combine time-accurate analysis and pseudo-spectral adjoint methods to efficiently compute high-dimensional unsteady gradients across disciplines like fluid mechanics, structures, heat transfer, and dynamics. This will significantly reduce design cycle times for systems in sectors such as urban air mobility and offshore wind that experience unsteady coupling between multiple physics-based models. Broader impacts include open sourcing the framework and conducting STEM engagement activities to promote diversity in engineering design and optimization.
