高性能计算在多学科大变量飞机优化设计中的应用

HPC Applications in Multidisciplinary Aircraft Design Optimization with Large Scale Variables

波音、空客等公司飞机设计中采用的先进设计手段之一是基于高性能计算的多学科、大规模设计变量优化的应用。目前我国的高性能计算在硬件方面已处于世界领先水平,但在工程应用系统方面还无法满足需求。文章介绍了以工程实际需求为导向,以高性能计算资源为辅助手段,基于飞机设计需求而开发的多学科、大变量的并行计算软件系统及计算平台,以及利用该平台实现的航空应用算例。

In Boeing and Airbus, one of the most important advanced design means is the multidisciplinary, large scale design variables optimization based on high performance computing environment. Presently, although the supercomputers of China already reached at the world top level, the engineering application systems cannot meet the demands of industry.This paper introduces a specific parallel computation platform which is established based on the aircraft design demand and could realize the multidisciplinary and large scale design variable optimization. Some applications implemented with the platform are also presented.
