Abstract :
Based on an improved genetic algorithm, a parallel genetic algorithm is presented and the running environment is constituted in this paper. The parallel genetic algorithm of multi-body model vehicle suspension optimization is implemented establishing an interface between ADAMS software and the genetic algorithm. The results show that the parallel genetic algorithm developed in this paper is efficient.
