DESCRIPTION OF THE DATA

This dataset contains the data associated with the results in the thesis to generate the figures and plots.
- Chap4_NACA: data for aerodynamic optimisation of the two-dimensional NACA0012 aerofoil;
- Chap5_RAE: data for aerodynamic optimisation of the two-dimensional RAE2822 aerofoil;
- Chap6_WTO: data for twist optimisation of the three-dimensional wings;
- Appendix: data for CFD validation of the SU2 solver.
The Tecplot software is required to view the data which are mostly in the 'xxx.dat' and 'xxx.lpk' format.
