aggregation_disc module

An MDODiscipline to aggregates constraints using KS/IKS/Max methods.

Classes:

ConstrAggegationDisc(constr_data_names, ...)

A discipline that aggregates the constraints computed by other disciplines.

class gemseo.core.aggregation_disc.ConstrAggegationDisc(constr_data_names, method_name, name=None, **meth_options)[source]

Bases: gemseo.core.discipline.MDODiscipline

A discipline that aggregates the constraints computed by other disciplines.

An efficient alternative to constraint aggregation in the optimization problem is to aggregate the constraint in a discipline.

This can be included in a MDO formulation, and in particular in a MDA, so only one adjoint calculation can be performed for the aggregated constraint instead of one adjoint per original constraint dimension.

See [KH15] and [KS83].
