An important problem in that field is the aeroelastic optimal design problem (for example, 5] 7] In this problem there are two coupled disciplines: aerodynamics and structural analysis. The problem is to compute the aerodynamic shape and structural rigidity such that some given cost function ....

....Since the inception of MDO, research in this field has yielded many di#erent techniques for inter disciplinary coupling in both analysis and optimization as well as applications of these techniques to real world design problems. Surveys by Sobieski and Haftka [65] and Alexandrov and Hussaini [3] present excellent descriptions of the various existing strategies for MDO. A number of ideas for solving complex MDO problems have been developed. These ideas include multilevel optimization strategies [4, 35] collaborative optimization [12, 37, 17] individual discipline feasible methods [16] ....

Applications of the result to optimization strategies are discussed and demonstrated numerically. 1 Introduction Lately, there is a growing interest in Multidisciplinary Design and Optimization (MDO) 1] [4]. An important problem in that field is the static aeroelastic optimal design problem (for example, 5] 7] In this problem there are two coupled disciplines: aerodynamics and structural analysis.

For an introduction to sensitivity analysis, both discrete and continuous, the reader is referred to [18, Chapters 7 8] A set of references spanning the field of multidisciplinary design optimization can be found in the series of proceedings [1] 2] 3] as well as the recent collection [4]. In particular, a comprehensive summary of advances in sensitivity analysis of nonlinear solid mechanics problems can be found in [6] For an overview of sensitivity and optimization of incompressible Navier Stokes flows, we recommend [13] 2. Governing equations of the stationary problem. ....

In the last three years there have been a growing interest in the engineering community in the numerical solution of multidisciplinary (MD) problems [1] [3]. A MD problem is defined in this work to be a problem which involves the solution of a set of equations which can be divided into at least two sets (disciplines) Three di#erent MD problems are considered: the Multidisciplinary Analysis problem (MDA) the Multidisciplinary Sensitivity ....
....of all the disciplines, the system optimization iteration convergence can be analyzed with classical methods developed for single discipline optimization. For such an approach this work is relevant only to the development of algorithms to solve the MDA and MDS problems. References [1] [3] summarize most of the work done so far in MDO. R.J. Balling and J. Sobieski [4] propose several multi level algorithms for the solution of MDO problems in which the design process is decomposed into the disciplinary levels. # Institute for Computer Applications in Science and Engineering, Mail ....

For instance, the design of aircraft involves, among other disciplines, aerodynamics, structural analysis, propulsion, and control. See [16] and [2] for overviews of the field. Broadly speaking, in engineering design problems one attempts to improve or optimize several objectives, frequently competing and conflicting measures of system performance, subject to satisfying a set of design and physical constraints.

Given a set of design or control variables x, the analyst wishes to solve, as accurately as possible, a disciplinary analysis equation (or a system of coupled disciplinary analysis equations, in the case of multidisciplinary optimization [4, 38]) A(x; u(x) 0 (1) for state variables u that describe the physical behavior of the system. System (1) is frequently an expensive simulation, say, involving the solution of a set of differential equations, as in the case of computing the flow around an airplane.
