Abstract

The multi domain nature of a mechatronic system makes it difficult to model using a single modelling technique over the whole system as varying sets of system variables are required. Bond-Graphs offer an advanced object oriented and polymorphic modeling and simulation technique. Bond-Graph model of the mechatronic system can be directly simulated on a digital computer using simulation software like 20-Sim graphically or manipulated mathematically to yield state equations using a simplified set of power and energy variables. The simulation scheme can be augmented to synthesise designs for mechatronic systems employing genetic programming as a tool for open ended search. This research paper presents results of an experiment developed to combine Bond-Graphs with genetic programming for unified and automated design of mechatronic or multi domain dynamic systems.
