Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a multidisciplinary robust design optimization formulation to evaluate uncertainty encountered in the design process. The formulation is a combination of the bi-level Collaborative Optimization framework and the multiobjective approach of the compromise Decision Support Problem. To demonstrate the proposed approach, the design of a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine containing two subsystem analyses is presented. The results indicate that the proposed Collaborative Optimization framework for multidisciplinary robust design optimization effectively attains solutions that are robust to variations in design variables and environmental conditions.
