Optimization of a multi-link steering mechanism using a continuous genetic algorithm

A steering mechanism is one of the main components of a vehicle that is responsible of controlling the directional wheels. The optimal design of a steering mechanism is not a trivial problem because the equations involved in the modeling are highly nonlinear. Therefore, this paper proposed a method...

Zusammenfassung:A steering mechanism is one of the main components of a vehicle that is responsible of controlling the directional wheels. The optimal design of a steering mechanism is not a trivial problem because the equations involved in the modeling are highly nonlinear. Therefore, this paper proposed a method for global optimization using a genetic algorithm for a multi-link steering mechanism, which can also be applied to other problems of optimal synthesis of mechanisms.
