Constraint-handling techniques for evolutionary multiobjective aerodynamic and multidisciplinary designs are focused. Because number of evaluations is strictly limited in aerodynamic or multidisciplinary design optimization due to expensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations for aerodynamic evaluations, very efficient and robust constraint-handling technique is required for aerodynamic and multidisciplinary design optimizations. First, in Section 2, features of aerodynamic design optimization problems are discussed. Then, in Section 3 constraint-handling techniques used for aerodynamic and multidisciplinary designs are overviewed. Then, an efficient constraint-handling technique suitable to aerodynamic and multidisciplinary designs is introduced with real-world aerodynamic and multidisciplinary applications. Finally, an efficient geometry-constraint-handling technique commonly used for aerodynamic design optimizations is presented. © 2009 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
