Abstract :
The goal of this paper is the optimization of the design of electrical wheels. For this, a new approach that automatically generates the optimization software is used. It allows the design to be made with an elaborated analytical model of the structure chosen for the wheel. Thus it is possible to obtain a very efficient optimization program. This approach is illustrated using the example of an electrical wheel for a bicycle
