With the goal of improving \ufb02ight performance across the entire \ufb02ight regime, a modal based optimization subject to trim and other constraints is employed. Distributed control loads are formulated and used to determine the optimization wing geometry as well. The optimization is then performed to achieve the best \ufb02ight performance which is de-\ufb01ned as minimum drag. This study explores the optimum wing geometry for steady level \ufb02ight at a single velocity, a range of velocities, and a coordinated turn. Additionally, the study also explores the optimum wing shapes with the consideration of the trade-off between \ufb02ight ef\ufb01ciency and ride quality, where a multi-objective optimization is performed, targeting for minimizing drag to improve performance and reducing the wing bending load of a gust to improve the ride quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aerospacerepository.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IFASD-2017-189.pdf\">Read the full paper here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><b>Jared R.
