    QUASI-ANALYTICAL MODELLING AND OPTIMISATION TECHNIQUES FOR TRANSPORT AIRCRAFT DESIGN by Askin T. Isikveren Doctoral Thesis Report 2002-13 intentionally blank i Preface This document constitutes a dissertation of research work for eligibility of a PhD Degree from the Department of Aeronautics (Flygteknik), Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden. This accomplishment is not only a product of one’s ability to conceive and investigate topics under the guidance of the pedagogical process, but such a formulation of ideas or even the notion of approaching the conceptual aircraft design problem from an alternate perspective simply would not have be possible without accumulating a wide-ranging skill set in industry. In conjunction with a welcome professional association with Williams International, it is with great fortune I have had the opportunity to be employed by such companies as Hawker de Havilland Ltd, Saab Aircraft AB, American Airlines and Bombardier Aerospace. Expressions of gratitude are forwarded to my supervisor Professor Arthur Rizzi for his invaluable advice and insight during the course of this degree. As a student, I affiliate myself with the Royal Institute of Technology with honour. The institution’s progressive attitude towards selection of research topics and innovative approach to contemporary tertiary education will serve to perpetuate its unqualified prestige. A final word of profound thanks goes to my family, my wife Carina and daughter Emma, for the untold amount of patience, understanding and support exhibited by them during the protracted period of accomplishing this milestone on a part-time basis.
