Abstract

This paper concentrates on the application of genetic algorithm optimization technique to find the gear teeth numbers for six-velocity Lepelletier automatic transmission with given approximate velocity ratios and a set of design constraints. MATLAB is employed to find the gear teeth numbers and the velocity ratios satisfying the design and geometric constraints.
