Genetic Algorithm implemented in pyAnsys for optimizing gecko setae biomimetic design
GA_20_convergence is a test code with 20 (# of generations) x 20(population size) Genetic Algorithm implementation. The primary objective is to test the code implementation and run convergency study.
GA_100_final is the final code running at larger population size and # of generations.
Pre-requisite for running pyAnsys:
- install Ansys student version
- install Anaconda
- create virtual environment
- Activate the virtual environment just created
- Install the following into the virtual environment: a. ipykernel b. jupyter notebook c. pyMADPL
- Run jupyter notebook with starting directory of the file location where the code file is stored: jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=YOUR_DIRECTORY
