Improving engineering system design by formal decomposition, sensitivity analysis, and optimizationA method for use in the design of a complex engineering system by decomposing the problem into a set of smaller subproblems is presented. Coupling of the subproblems is preserved by means of the sensitivity derivatives of the subproblem solution to the inputs received from the system. The method allows for the division of work among many people and computers.
