Optimization of Radial Cams with Translating Roller Follower through Genetic Algorithms

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, the optimization problem is studied for a planar cam which rotates around its axis and moves a centered translating roller follower. The proposed optimization method is a genetic algorithm. The paper deals with different design problems: the minimization of the pressure angle, the maximization of the radius of curvature and the minimization of the contact pressure. Different types of motion laws are tested to found the most suitable for the computational optimization process.
