  • Multiple objective optimization of an airfoil shape 
    Dymond, Antoine Smith Dryden (University of Pretoria, 2011)
    An airfoil shape optimization problem with conflicting objectives is handled using two different multi-objective approaches. These are an a priori scalarization approach where the conflicting objectives are assigned weights ...
  • Tuning optimization algorithms under multiple objective function evaluation budgets 
    Dymond, Antoine Smith Dryden (University of Pretoria, 2014)
    The performance of optimization algorithms is sensitive to both the optimization problem's numerical characteristics and the termination criteria of the algorithm. Given these considerations two tuning algorithms named ...
