This paper illustrates a proof of concept of a multi-level optimization, involving parameters related to both geometry and mission control. The goal is indeed to find an optimal boomerang in terms of energy requested to throw the object, optimizing at the same time the shape of the boomerang (high level) and the throw parameters (low level). The optimization problem is accomplished by the modeFRONTIER® platform; the throw parameters optimization takes into account also how the parameters uncertainty affects the boomerang performance (return capability).
