Abstract
The design of critical components for aerospace applications involves a number of conflicting functional requirements: reducing fuel consumption, cost, and weight, while enhancing performance, operability and robustness. As several materials systems and concepts remain competitive, a new approach that couples finite element analysis (FEA) and established multicriteria optimization protocols is developed in this paper. To demonstrate the approach, a prototypical materials selection problem for gas turbine combustor liners is chosen. A set of high temperature materials systems consisting of superalloys and thermal barrier coatings is considered as candidates. A thermo-mechanical FEA model of the combustor liner is used to numerically predict the response of each material system candidate. The performance of each case is then characterized by considering the material cost, manufacturability, oxidation resistance, damping behavior, thermomechanical properties, and the FEA postprocessed parameters relating to fatigue and creep. Using the obtained performance values as design criteria, an ELECTRE multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) model is employed to rank and classify the alternatives. The optimization model is enhanced by incorporating the relative importance (weighting factors) of the selection criteria, which is determined by multiple designers via a group decision-making process.

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
