: Key parameters like aspect ratio —the ratio of wingspan to wing area—are critical; higher aspect ratios generally reduce drag but increase weight and structural bending. ASO is the iterative process of adjusting geometric

Effective aerodynamic design hinges on a mathematical model that generates candidate shapes using a set of design variables. This parametric representation must balance flexibility (the range of possible shapes), conciseness (using a minimum number of variables), and robustness (the stability of the geometry generation process).
