Evaluating Multi-criteria Evolutionary Algorithms for Airfoil Optimisation

A new approach for multi criteria design optimisation is presented in the paper. The problem tackled with this approach is the 2- dimensional design of an aircraft wing. To carry the derandomized step size control also to the multi criteria applications, four different selection schemes are proposed. Furthermore, we present a new method for averaging results of multi objective evolutionary algorithms. This method is then used to compare the results achieved with the proposed algorithms.
