Firstly we should ask, why optimization under uncertainty?
SPaircraft is a signomial programming compatible transonic aircraft conceptual design optimization tool. It is of similar level of fidelity as TASOPT, and can perform the single- and multi-mission optimization of many different configurations of aircraft.
- `Efficient and Reliable Aircraft Multidisciplinary
Design Optimization via Signomial Programming <http://hoburg.mit.edu/publications/SP_tasopt_watermark.pdf>`_ extends these models to multiple aircraft configurations, and demonstrates the advantages of SPaircraft relative to other existing multidisciplinary design optimization tools.
