An Automated Structural Optimisation Methodology for Scissor Structures Using a Genetic Algorithm

Table 2

Boundary values for the seven design variables (height, width, and thickness of both the polar and the translational units).

	Lower limit	Upper limit
Number of scissor units	5	10
Height	40 mm	150 mm
Width	40 mm	150 mm
Thickness	2 mm	10 mm
