Abstract
Numerical optimization techniques are identified as an effective tool for automated synthesis of windmill design. Several simple design examples are presented to show the efficiency and generality of these methods. The extension to more sophisticated design problems is discussed, and the advantages and limitations of these techniques are identified.
