Abstract
´This paper presents a gradient-based optimal design procedure using the Continuous Lagrangian Sensitivity equation method (CLSEM) and a NURBS representation of the geometry. First, the CLSEM provides a more accurate evaluation of the derivatives of the objective functions than our previous approach using a Continuous Eulerian Sensitivity Equation Method (CESEM a.k.a. SEM or CSEM). Since this sensitivity formulation leads directly to the material derivatives of the dependent variables of the flow, the computation of the gradients with respect to shape parameters is simple and direct. Second, the geometric representation of airfoils based on NURBS reduces the number of design variables needed to accurately represent a wing section and ensures good smoothness properties. Furthermore the NURBS representation of airfoils is compatible with most CAD systems. The resulting optimal design procedure is described and then verified using the Method of Manufactured Solutions. It is applied to the design of airfoils in laminar flow at low Reynolds numbers.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
