STARC-ABL aircraft optimization

Single-aisle Turboelectric Aircraft with an Aft Boundary-Layer propulsor or "STARC-ABL" is an aircraft design developed by NASA. We have been working with them to optimize this design and quantify the potential gains in efficiency.

I'm interested in ducted propeller optimisation for DEP aircraft. What software are you using for optimisation?
