The use of pareto genetic algorithms (GAs)to determine high-efe ciency missile geometries is examined, and the capabilityofthesealgorithmstodeterminehighlyefe cientandrobustmissileaerodynamicdesignsisdemonstrated, given a variety of design goals and constraints. The design study presented documents both thelearning capability of GAs and the power of such algorithms for multiobjective optimization. Results indicate that the GA is clearly capable of designing aerodynamic shapes that perform well in either single or multiple goal applications.
