This paper presented an efficient solution for aerodynamic shape optimization based on the latest developments in the Mid-range Approximation Method (MAM) within a trust-region optimization framework. The proposed method can achieve the design goal successfully for high-fidelity large-scale aerodynamic shape optimization problems with enhanced robustness and efficient performance.
