Optimization Design of the Crane Girder Based on Adaptive Genetic Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

With taking weight of single main beam of gantry crane as objective function, and taking main beam upper & lower cored, diagonal & horizontal bracing, and width & weight as design variable, this essay adopted population diversity adaptive genetic algorithm to optimize its structure and improved program design through MATLAB. This algorithm could accelerate convergence speed, which make much it easier to realize comprehensive optimal solution, since it effectively avoided weakness of basic genetic algorithm, such as partial optimal solution, prematurity and being lack of continuity, etc.
