A Bond Graph Representation Approach for Automated Analog Filter Design
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel circuit representation scheme, namely bond graph, along with strong-typed genetic programming for the evolution of analog filter circuits. Bond graph is a concise and uniform language for the description of circuit systems and more general engineering systems. Many unique characteristics of bond graph makes it an attractive candidate for representing circuit in genetic programming design. The feasibility and efficiency of using bond graph as the representation technique of circuit systems are verified in our experiments with automated analogue filter design.

متن کاملOn Automated Design of Mechatronic Systems through Bond - Graphs and Genetic Programming
Bond-Graphs based representation and genetic programming based search and synthesis can be combined for automated design of mechatronic or multi domain dynamic systems. This design scheme can be turned into an intelligent automated design system by introducing a dynamic database or knowledge library of relevant information (gathered through design experience) which tends to help the designer in...
متن کاملAutomated Design Methodology for Mechatronic Systems Using Bond Graphs and Genetic Programming
This paper suggests an automated design methodology for synthesizing designs for multi-domain systems, such as mechatronic systems. The domain of mechatronic systems includes mixtures of, for example, electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, and thermal components, making it difficult to design a system to meet specified performance goals with a single design tool. The multi-domain design ...
متن کاملEvolutionary Robust Design of Analog Filters Using Genetic Programming
This chapter proposes a robust design approach that exploits the openended topological synthesis capability of genetic programming (GP) to evolve robust lowpass and highpass analog filters. Compared with a traditional robust design approach based on genetic algorithms (GAs), the open-ended topology search based on genetic programming and bond graph modeling (GPBG) is shown to be able to evolve ...
متن کاملComputational Synthesis of Multi-Domain Systems
Several challenging issues have to be addressed for automated synthesis of multi-domain systems. First, design of interdisciplinary (multi-domain) engineering systems, such as mechatronic systems, differs from design of single-domain systems, such as electronic circuits, mechanisms, and fluid power systems, in part because of the need to integrate the several distinct domain characteristics in ...
