HI,
i'm running a 2D drag minimization using AOA and 2D FFD box as DVs.
i have GEO_MODE set to gradient but for some reason it is only carrying out 2 adjoint evaluations in 12 design iterations, and is finishing on a higher drag value than when it started.
i'd like to make it evaluate the adjoint gradient at each design iteration, any help appreciated!
config file attached.
thanks, Tom.
