Multi-Objective Decision Making of a Simplified Car Body Shape Towards Optimum Aerodynamic Performance

The importance of the aerodynamic performance, specifically meaning reducing both drag coefficient (CD) and lift coefficient (CL), is a growing issue in the modern automotive industry. The former is to improve fuel efficiency whereas the latter is to improve driving stability. These characteristics are quite associated with the geometric details of the external car body such that many studies are putting a lot of efforts to understand the...
