This encompassed analyzing and implementing my routines on a complex piece of software while maintaining its parallelization via MPI. The adjoint solver was used to study the sensitivity of the performance of a stator-rotor stage of a low pressure turbine of a commercial jet engine to inlet and outlet boundary conditions and to the shape of the blades and hub geometry.</p>Adjoint Formulation of a Steady Multistage Turbomachinery Interface Using Automatic Differentiationhttps://www.simaor.net/publication/rodrigues-2018/Thu, 15 Nov 2018 00:00:00 +0000https://www.simaor.net/publication/rodrigues-2018/
