- Updated manuscript title to reflect a focus on comparison of surrogate strategies for damage-aware optimization.
- Improved clarity in the results section by refining descriptions of surrogate model performance and validation metrics.
- Enhanced the discussion on the adaptive validation loop and its impact on optimization outcomes.
- Clarified the interpretation of objective-function values and the implications of damage control in the optimization framework.
- Added figures to illustrate the evolution of optimized window thicknesses and RBF objective surfaces during the optimization process.
