An integrated, multiobjective optimization procedure is developed for the design of high speed proprotors with the coupling of aerodynamic, dynamic, aeroelastic, and structural criteria. The objectives are to maximize propulsive efficiency in high speed cruise and rotor figure of merit in hover. Constraints are imposed on rotor blade aeroelastic stability in cruise and on total blade weight. Two different multiobjective formulation procedures, the Min summation of beta and the K-S function approaches are used to formulate the two-objective optimization problems.
