0800 - 0845 KEYNOTE ADDRESS: Winging it – Developing New Metrics and Methods for Re-shaping Future Aircraft Ballroom A-B
Terry A. Weisshaar, Program Manager, DARPA – Defense Sciences Office ---- Keynote Abstract: Morphing aircraft change shape drastically, in the air, on the fly, to allow them to adapt to radical changes in advanced mission environments, such as changing from a loitering airplane to an attacking airplane. Unfortunately, the metrics used to create effective morphing designs – actuator effectiveness and energy input, mechanism weight and topology and materials selection – are not commonly used by today’s MDO methodology. This talk describes DARPA’s morphing aircraft program, the component technologies involved in morphing aircraft design and how success is measured. The presentation will suggest how the MDO community can respond to the challenges of this type of aircraft design to provide rapid knowledge generation.

1400 - 1630
PANEL: Resolving Tradeoffs in MDO: Performance, Cost, and DFX Pearl Street Room
Panel explores the implications of various tradeoff-resolving approaches and highlights the mathematical and non-mathematical arguments involved in tradeoff resolution. Much of engineering design and MDO comes down to resolving tradeoffs between competing objectives. Two approaches have been embraced by the engineering design community: On the one hand multiobjective optimization seeks to identify Pareto-optimal, non-dominated solutions from which a final design can be chosen. In this approach preferences are expressed after optimization has converged. Utility-based or decision-based design (DBD) on the other hand combines various objectives into a scalar, dimensionless utility that reflects the "goodness" of a particular solution. In this approach preferences are generally expressed before optimization begins. The panel will explore the implications of each approach and highlight the mathematical and non-mathematical arguments involved in tradeoff resolution. Examples of tradeoffs in modern system design such as design for performance, cost, robustness, noise and emissions reduction, manufacturability, flexibility and evolvability will be discussed.
