Evolutionary computation approach for automated synthesis design of mechanical structures

This paper proposes an evolutionary computation approach for automated design of mechanical structures especially in its early stage of design phases. Due to the known characteristics of the stage, the approach basically involves a synthetic design method with the composition of building blocks representing the elements of mechanical objects. In order for the building blocks to be more suitable for representation and evolution of mechanical structures, Elementary Cell Blocks (ECBs) are introduced as new building blocks. A new Darwinian evolution process for the new building blocks is also necessarily involved in the approach. We have demonstrated the implementation of the approach with the design of multi-step gear systems.
