abstract = {Computer simulations and computer aided design in the past
decades have evolved into a valuable instrument, penetrating
just about every branch of engineering in industry and
academia. More specifically, computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) simulations allow to inspect flow phenomena in a
variety of applications. As simulation methods evolve,
mature, and are adopted by a rising number of users, the
demand for methods which not only predict the result of a
specific configuration, but can give indications on how to
improve the design, increases. This thesis is concerned with
the efficient calculation of sensitivity information of CFD
algorithms, and their application to numerical optimization.
The sensitivities are obtained by applying Algorithmic
Differentiation (AD).A specific emphasis of this thesis is
placed on the efficient application of adjoint methods,
including parallelism, for commonly used CFD finite volume
methods (FVM) and their implementation in the open source
framework OpenFOAM.},
