Abstract

In this paper, various computational methods for shape design in aerodynamics are reviewed. A classification system based on the mathematical structure of the methods is introduced. The fundamental ideas of different formulations are discussed, and the algorithms are described. The advantages and well-known disadvantages of different methods are also briefly discussed.
