Micro Genetic Algorithms in Structural Optimization and Their Applications

마이크로 유전알고리즘을 이용한 구조최적설계 및 응용에 관한 연구

Simple genetic algorithm(SGA) has been used to optimize a lot of structural optimization problems because it can optimize non-linear problems and obtain the global solution. But, because of large evolving populations during many generations, it takes a long time to calculate fitness. Therefore this paper applied micro-genetic algorithm(μ -GA) to structural optimization and compared results of μ -GA with results of SGA. Additionally, the Paper applied μ -GA to gate optimization problem for injection molds by using simulation program CAPA.
