Multi-fidelity surrogate-based methods play an important role in modern engineering design applications, aiming to improve model accuracy while reducing computational cost.One of the widely adopted approaches is the calibration-based method, which calibrates the low-fidelity model through mr robot funko a discrepancy model between low-fidelity and high-fidelity models.Since discrepancies between models exhibit varying characteristics across different problems, using a single surrogate for discrepancy approximation may lack stability.

In practical engineering design problems, it is often hard for designers to select optimal surrogate models.To this end, a hybrid-surrogate-calibration-assisted multi-fidelity modeling (HSC-MFM) approach is proposed in this paper.Specifically, this approach integrates three representative surrogate models, including the polynomial response surface, Kriging model, and radial basis function, to comprehensively capture the discrepancy characteristics between different fidelity models.

Furthermore, an adaptive weight calculation method is developed to improve the modeling accuracy.Testing results demonstrate that HSC-MFM achieves enhanced stability compared to most existing methods while maintaining good prediction accuracy.Finally, the proposed method is applied to predict the strength skin of the flayed one of the frame for a blended-wing-body underwater glider, which verifies its engineering applicability.
