The system mainly consists of tow parts: ES and ANNs. By being trained with much data samples, the back propagation (BP) ANN gets the knowledge of gear materials selection, and is able to inference according to user input. The system realizes the complementing of ANNs and ES. Using this system, engineers without materials selection experience can conveniently deal with gear materials selection.展开更多
