Advanced Design Optimisation by Means of Multiobjective Evolutionary Algorithms: The Case of Two Real World Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Design Optimisation (DO) of Complex Systems is often a multidisciplinary task and involves multiple conflicting objectives and design constraints, where conventional methods cannot solve efficiently. This paper presents Advanced DO by Means of Evolutional Algorithms in two Real World Applications Electronics and Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS). The former is presented in the context of multi-objective evolutionary synthesis and optimisation of analogue systems. As for the latter, DO of MEMS bio-mimetically is a very novel area of research, Which addresses the compelling change in the traditional landscape of the associated research disciplines by seeking to provide a novel biologically inspired computational platform for DO of micro-scale designs. This paper presents the latest advancements in the application of EAs in the DO of MEMS and analogue electronic systems and the emergence of the new area of ‘Multidisciplinary Optimisation'.
