Abstract
This thesis focuses on optimizing propeller aerodynamics for distributed and hybrid-electric propulsion using surrogate modeling and simulations. It extends to powerplant integration, addressing turbomachinery design and optimization. The goal is an MDO framework for sustainable, efficient, low-emission engine design.
