During the work presented in this thesis, we apply Reduced Order Meth-
ods (ROMs) to a naval industrial problem, coupling a suitable libraries to a finite volumes solver in order to increase the speedup of shape design optimization workflow. The purpose of this work is to analyze the result of the optimization workflow in complex system (viscous fluid, boundary layer), before and after ROM injection, from the computational time and the numerical accuracy point of view.
The thesis is organized as follows: we present a deeper discussion about Reduced Basis (RB) methods in Chapter 2, then in the Chapter 3 we provide an overall idea of a standard optimization workflow. In Chapter 4 we focus about the re-organization of this system after ROM injection and so in Chapter 5 we present some results collected, focusing on the speedup of the optimization procedure and the on accuracy of the ROM-injected optimization workflow. Finally, in Chapter 6 we summarize give some conclusions and a brief outlook of possible development.
