AEROSURF is the stand-alone driver of the geometry paneling modules used by the multiblock design code, SYN107-MB. It is needed to provide the initial paneling used with an initial surface grid by program UV to parameterize that grid for efficient mesh perturbations during the design process. It treats geometric entities such as wings, fuselages, pylons, nacelles, etc., by calculating various intersections and imposing regular panels on the intersected surfaces representing a complete or partial aerodynamic configuration. Main routine SURFER and the routines it calls should be identical to the corresponding routines in the design software. The geometry definitions are in the form of planar sections, to which perturbing shape function ("sine bumps") may be added. Shape optimization procedures for full aerospace configurations have no doubt progressed since this work from the 1990s, but the stand-alone portion of it (this AEROSURF package) may yet find further uses.
