Abstract
The design of complex engineering systems often involves several coupled disciplines or subsystems. Multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) is an effective design methodology for complex systems by fully exploring the interaction of subsystems. Generally, numerous computation-intensive black-box functions exist in the MDO problem. Mode pursuing sampling (MPS) method is an efficient global optimization method developed for the expensive black-box functions. In this work, the MPS method is successfully applied to solve a ship MDO problem in conceptual design. The results indicate that the MPS method is capable of efficiently addressing MDO problems.
