Design Optimization of Jib Crane Boom Using Evolutionary Algorithm
Abstract: Cranes are the material handling equipment?s that are used worldwide. Due the various standards available it is easy for manufacturers to choose dimensions, most of the time they do it on trial and error basis and chooses dimension that are satisfying the conditions provided in standards, and it is often found that the dimensions are not optimum, and lesser attention has been given to optimization of its dimension. In the following paper an attempt has been made to optimize the Boom of 1 ton Jib crane as per Indian Standards using simple and easily available Excel solver?s Evolutionary Algorithm.
Keywords: Jib Crane, Optimization, Indian Standards, Evolutionary Algorithm
