متن کاملA Heuristic Approach for Optimization of Gearbox Dimension
A powerful optimization method is proposed in this study for the minimal dimensional design problem of gearbox. It is a general model that is suitable to use for any series of gear drives system and can extract both dimensional and layout of components-limited optimization design together. The objective function in this study has many local extremes so for avoiding this situation, various const...
