Abstract

A mathematical model is proposed to analyse the optimization method of function chain design solution. In the approach, similarity theory is used to analyse and calculate the Generalized Distance (GD) of two adjacent components in a design solution. The evaluation criteria of sub-functions are used to select alternative components. Under the premise of regarding the Generalized Distance as the path passed through by ants, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is used to identify appropriate solutions automatically. Evaluation of single component and compatibility of two adjacent components are considered in a design solution by the proposed optimization model.
