• Initial population created.
• Population doubled.
• Random cross breeding between 1st and 2nd population set
• Random mutations w/ fixed-rate / fixed-probability (quantity)
• All genes saturation checked / adjusted.
• Fitness of chromosomes evaluated, sorted from best to worst.
• Worst ½ of chromosomes discarded, repeat back to doubling.
• Best motor tracked throughout process.

Conclusions:
•
•
•
5 [rpm] generator is feasible.
Generator possible, but heavy.
Weight and slow speed lead to issue of cost.
Future Work Direction:
•
•
•
Examine larger variety of motor topologies.
Perform more in-depth cost analysis.
Refinements to manufacturability.
