  KEYWORDS: Steepest Descent, CFD, Flapping Wing Airfoil, Thrust Performance

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Fluid Dynamics, Vol.14 No.2, May 28, 2024

  ABSTRACT: The current work aims at employing a gradient descent algorithm for optimizing the thrust of a flapping wing. An in-house solver has been employed, along with mesh movement methodologies to capture the dynamics of flow around the airfoil. An efficient framework for implementing the coupled solver and optimization in a multicore environment has been implemented for the generation of optimized solutions—maximizing thrust performance & computational speed.
