Results are given for a variety of design problems involving the cantilevered plate. The results of these optimizations are discussed, and some suggestions for potential extensions of and improvements to this project are offered. A Genetic Approach to Configuration Design Alok Srivastava , Department of Mechanical Engineering , CADlab Configuration Design is the creation of a valid configuration from available components. Components with single input and single output are used for implementing linear configuration design. Genetic techniques are used to evolve better configurations.
Genetic algorithm appear to be a good optimization scheme for a small test problem.
A strategy for coordinating multiple autonomous robots with a genetic algorithm is presented. When a mobile robot moves from a starting point to a target point, planning an optimal or feasible path is necessary in order to avoid obstructions and minimize costs such as time, distance or energy. This paper presents a computer-aided method for assembly planning using genetic algorithms. Specifically, the proposed assembly planning system generates subassembly partitioning schemes and suggested assembly sequences. This is done by generating subassembly partitioning and associated assembly sequences from a weighted liaison graph.
