Gradient based optimization and control of chaotic multidisciplinary systems via Least Squares Shadowing adjoint method

Abstract

The objective of this proposal is to use Least Squares Sensitivity Analysis, a new computational method being developed by the PI, for optimization of chaotic systems. This new method computes derivatives of chaotic dynamical systems, and has been demonstrated on an aeroelastic oscillation model and on a turbulent flow simulation. This proposal extends this new method to complex chaotic flows and flow structure interaction problems. Goals include extended mathematical theory, new algorithms, new software and new applications.
