In this video, we walk around the Koenigsegg Absolut to see how they improved the aerodynamics. This car does 0-400-0 in less that 28 seconds. For this, they needed to loose a lot of downforce in favor of a lower drag. They claim a drag coefficient Cd of less than 0.28 - that's really low for a hyper car!

In this video, we apply aerodynamic shape optimization using the adjoint technique to a 3D NACA 0015 airfoil.

The method runs through a number of cycles, each containing:
- a primal run (normal CFD simulation of the aerodynamics)
- a dual run (adjoint simulation to link the lift improvement goal to the flow field)
- a sensitivity map calculation (to calculate how the surface should be morphed to increase lift)
- a morphing step to implement these suggestions. The morphing is applied to the volume & surface mesh directly

In this video, we use AirShaper's Design Advice to learn how we can cut drag on a public 3D model of a Cessna. This technique uses "adjoint shape optimization" and allows users without simulation expertise to improve the aerodynamics of their design.

The Design Advice tells users where to push a surface outward (red) or inward (blue) along the local normal.
