This paper presents a new path planning approach using Coevolutionary genetic algorithm (CGA) for automating the path planning of two Cooperative construction manipulators. A methodology based on the concept of configuration space (C-space) technique in conjunction with the Coevolutionary genetic search is used for generating the path. The paper proposes a method for finding the minimum distance and collision free path using CGA. It uses an interference detection algorithm that runs in parallel with CGA to check collision between obstacle and cooperative cranes during path planning. The effectiveness of CGA is compared with other search approaches like A* and Genetic Algorithms GA.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
