3d Freeform Component Fixture Design Optisation Using a Genetic Algorithm

چکیده
This paper details an application of genetic algorithms (GA) developed for the optimisation of fixture locator positioning for 3D freeform components. Based on the information of the workpiece, a genetic algorithm based approach is applied to determine the most statically stable fixture configuration from a large number of possible candidates. The preliminary implementation is introduced to demonstrate the ability of GA in automated fixture design.

This paper proposes an optimization algorithm for envelope design during an early stage freeform building design. This study performs geometric modeling using a three-dimensional (3D) design tool called Rhino, which designs examples of freeform buildings with a parametric design method, i.e., a 3D design technique for freeform building design. This method proceeds by mesh generation for the fre...
