About this technology

Overview

Aviary is an aircraft design, analysis, and optimization code based in OpenMDAO. It includes the propulsion, aerodynamics, weights, and mission computational routines of both the GASP and FLOPS codes, and allows for flexible switching between these routines. It also can incorporate external subsystems in OpenMDAO format, and can perform aircraft and mission optimizations of both conventional and hybrid electric aircraft.
