Abstract

Aircraft design is one of the inspiring and fascinating processes in the field of aviation. The perfect design helps in many methods to enhance the performance, safety, and economy of the aircraft. In recent days, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has supported many areas in the aviation field to reach the betterment of the work including in aircraft design. AI drives two methods for completing the design process namely data driven methods and manual design process. The first one algorithm–driven design method to create the design automatically. Another one is data-driven design methods follows the feeding the input in the form of data for the manual design process. Also, machine learning and deep learning bring and support a multitude of advancements and developments in the aerospace sector by modifying the costs, declining ...
