Abstract
This study demonstrates a significant achievement in using the Genetic Algorithms technique to design compliant mechanisms capable of tracking a predetermined non-linear output path. The main objective of this research is to develop a computational optimization framework for generating mechanisms that satisfy the specified input requirements with the highest precision. The authors present a tool that incorporates a Python interface and ANSYS MAPDL software for modeling, solving, and optimizing compliant mechanisms. The optimization objective and algorithm are outlined, followed by a report of the results and recommendations for future research directions.
