Old MDO Test Suite
• The current Test Suite has a set of test problems classified according to number of variables and constraints (as described below). The new MDO Test Suite under development will have a much broader classification scheme that takes into account degree of coupling (sparse to dense) and nature of coupling (top-down, non-hierarchic, etc.) in addition to problem size.
• Below are links to the present set of test problems, categorized by the current classification scheme. New test problems and the new classification scheme will be online in Fall 2007.
– Current Classfication Scheme
|
Class 1- |
The class 1 problems are simple in nature with less number of design variables and constraints. |
|
Class 2- |
The class 2 problems are more complex than class 1 with more number of design variables and constraints. They are simplified engineering problems. |
|
Class 3- |
The class 3 problems have large number of design variables, constraints and are computationally expensive. |
