Bond-graphs + genetic programming: analysis of an automatically synthesized rotary mechanical system

Initial results of an experiment devised to combine Bond-Graph modeling and simulation with genetic programming for automated design of a simple mechatronic system are reported in [1]. Two target eigen values are specified on complex plane and a Bond-Graph model is evolved through automated design scheme outlined in [1]. As a further development this research paper presents physical design realization based on the evolved BondGraph model. The physical design realization yields a second order open loop system. It is analyzed from a control systems stand point to determine system’s dynamic characteristics. The dynamic analysis shows that damping ratio is 0.591 so we observe underdamped transient response typical of a system with complex conjugate poles.
