Trajectory optimization of an advanced launch vehicle is addressed. The optimal control problem is converted into a parameter optimization problem. Then, simulated annealing based single and multiobjective optimization algorithms are used. The single objective optimization problem is formulated to minimize the total flight time, while the multiobjective formulation tries to maximize payload mass and orbit insertion velocity. The problem is also solved using our novel multiple cooling multiobjective simulated annealing algorithm. It is shown that the algorithm is capable of finding the Pareto front of such nonlinear, multimodal problems.

Ablation Analyses of Optimized Nose Tips for Hypersonic Vehicles Onay, Oguz K.; Eyi, Sinan (2020-01-01) An accurate and efficient design optimization method is developed for hypersonic vehicles. For flow analysis, the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes and finite-rate chemical reaction equations are solved implicitly using Newton's method. A gradient-based method is implemented for numerical optimization. Sensitivities are evaluated using the discrete adjoint method. Bezier curves are used for geometry parameterization. The objective of design is to minimize drag while keeping aerodynamic heating below initial values...
Flight simulation and control of a helicopter Erçin, Gülsüm Hilal; Tekinalp, Ozan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2008) In this thesis the development of a nonlinear simulation model of a utility helicopter and the design of its automatic flight control system is addressed. In the first part of this thesis, the nonlinear dynamic model for a full size helicopter is developed using the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. The main rotor (composed of inflow and flapping dynamics parts), tail rotor, fuselage, vertical stabilizer, horizontal stabilizer of the helicopter are modeled in order to obtain the total forces and moments needed f...
Multiobjective design optimization of rockets and missiles Öztürk, Mustafa Yavuz; Tekinalp, Ozan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2009) Multidisciplinary design optimization of aerospace vehicles has attracted interest of many researchers. Well known aerospace companies are developing tools for the mutlidisciplinary design optimization. However, the multiobjective optimization of the design is a new and important area investigated very little by the researchers. This thesis will examine the approaches to the multiobjective and mutlidisciplinary design optimization of rockets and missiles. In the study, multiobjective optimization method cal...
Nonlinear modeling and flight control system design of an unmanned aerial vehicle Karakaş, Deniz; Balkan, Raif Tuna; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2007) The nonlinear simulation model of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in MATLAB®/Simulink® environment is developed by taking into consideration all the possible major system components such as actuators, gravity, engine, atmosphere, wind-turbulence models, as well as the aerodynamics components in the 6 DOF equations of motion. Trim and linearization of the developed nonlinear model are accomplished and various related analyses are carried out. The model is validated by comparing with a similar UAV data in te...
Multiobjective Conceptual Design of an Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle Tekinalp, Ozan (2012-09-19) Design optimization of a supersonic unmanned combat air vehicle is addressed. Proper mathematical models are developed, with constraints on optimization variables and performance limits. Multiple cooling multi objective simulated annealing algorithm is used to carry out the optimization. The results demonstrate that design optimization formulation as well as the algorithms employed is effective to help designers to come up with baseline configurations.
