12th AIAA Aviation Technology, Integration, and Operations (ATIO) Conference and 14th AIAA/ISSMO Multidisciplinary Analysis and Optimization Conference 17-19 September 2012 Indianapolis, Indiana Hyatt Regency Indianapolis 12th AIAA Aviation Technology, Integration, and Operations (ATIO) Conference The Next Generation Air Transportation System will depend on the concepts and results of synthesis. From the design of individual and diverse vehicles to the development and implementation of our air traffic control system, to the airspace system itself, the amalgamation of diverse knowledge, people, and ideas into a cohesive, optimized, and useful entity is critical. The design of aircraft and the systems in which they operate require advanced multidisciplinary design tools, methodologies, and optimization. New paradigms in technology, innovative vehicle configurations and design solutions, and new operational systems are emerging for this future synergistic aviation world. This Conference has an established reputation for bringing together aviation professionals, practicing engineers, researchers, and policymakers to explore ideas, share research, and create interactive opportunities in response to these issues. http://www.aiaa.org/ATIOMAO2012 14th AIAA/ISSMO Multidisciplinary Analysis and Optimization Conference This Conference brings together users, developers, and researchers to present the latest theoretical and computational developments, applications, ideas, and problems in the field of multidisciplinary analysis, design, and optimization. Advances in methodology, process, and tool development will be presented. Of particular interest are the continuing challenges associated with the design and optimization of large-scale coupled design problems, and the ways in which recent technological advances provide an enabling platform for achieving a truly integrated system design. Panel sessions and keynote speakers from industry, academia, and government will represent key views and issues in multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) synthesis and integration. These events are always considered highlights of the program. http://www.aiaa.org/ATIOMAO2012 |
