  Generative Design and Simulation for Castor Wheel Assembly

  By Lokesh Maddiboyina

  Abstract: A castor wheel CAD model can be used to optimise the wheel's design for avariety of elements, including load capacity, durability, and use. Given theemployment of evolutionary algorithms and search strategies in thiscomputational process, generative design, also known as evolutionary design,is not a new idea. It can be characterised as a prototype design system thatcreates fresh conceptual designs from scratch using a genetic algorithm. In thismethod, a prototype system generates …

  An Optimized Design of the Standard Manual Wheelchair

  By Rajkumar E., Vishak P V, John Thomas, Manjunath M Mallia

  Abstract: The manual wheel chair is commonly found in hospitals, rehabilitation centres, senior housing and airports for allowing patients, people with physical disabilities or for elderly people. Transferring mishaps are one of the major causes for injuries. Moreover, all the transferring actions between wheelchair and other surfaces are difficult for wheelchair users. This project is aimed at optimizing the existing design of a standard manual wheelchair by introducing a height adjusting …
