  • Abstract
    This paper addresses the issues related to the design of optimum structure for lightweight, flexible manipulators under the total weight constraint. The optimum design problem is formulated by establishing a mathematical model of flexible manipulator based on the finite difference method, the optimal solution is obtained by using an improved real-code genetic algorithms (GA). Numeric simulation has been conducted and the results have demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method.
