Waveriders are typically designed through streamline-tracing methods starting from a pre-defined rear vehicle parametrization. It is possible that this inverse design method does not result in a valid waverider shape which makes it difficult to perform design space exploration in an optimization framework with specific objective functions. Instead, a direct methodology, such as the one introduced by by Son et al. (Aerospace, Vol 9, Issue 7, 2022, 348), ensuring valid designs can be consistently obtained, is needed. This work builds further on the parametrization of Son et al. by considering various objective functions. The optimization is performed with a genetic algorithm together with a surrogate model for which the aerodynamic performance is evaluated through Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations.
