PySAGAS Documentation

PySAGAS is a Python package for the generation of Sensitivity Approximations for Geometric and Aerodynamic Surface properties. It provides a computationally-efficient method for generating surface sensitivity approximations from existing flow solutions, to use in aerodynamic shape optimisation studies. The GIF below is an example of this, where a hypersonic waverider was optimised for maximum L/D at Mach 6.

To learn more about the theory behind PySAGAS, see the theory documentation. Otherwise, see the Getting Started guide, or have a look at the examples.
