AI-Accelerated Aircraft Design Optimization with nTop, Luminary Cloud, and ESTECO
Nov 18, 2025 | 5:00 PM CET
Design optimization studies often involve evaluating dozens to hundreds of design configurations, each traditionally requiring meshing and full CFD simulation that can take hours to days per run. This results in total study durations of weeks to months, with computational resources becoming the limiting factor for early-stage design quality.
On November 18, domain experts from ESTECO, nTop and Luminary Cloud will demonstrate how to accelerate aircraft design optimization by combining parametric modeling, Physics AI, and multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) in a unified automated workflow. During the webinar, you will learn how to generate design variants in nTop, train Physics AI models, and orchestrate, manage, and analyze run optimization studies in ESTECO VOLTA digital engineering platform - eliminating the bottleneck of running full CFD simulations for every design iteration while maintaining analysis accuracy.
The webinar is hosted by nTop: register now.
