Keywords: aeroelastic tailoring, arrow wing, composite

A computer code for aeroelastic tailoring of an arrow wing configuration of Supersonic Transport (SST) is developed. This computer code includes the strength and the aeroelastic analysis. In optimization process of this code, Genetic Algorithm (GA) is employed. This code is applied to a preliminary design of an arrow wing configuration.
