Optimization of Sheet Material Layout in Industrial Production Using Genetic Algorithms
Abstract:
We address irregular polygon nesting on sheet materials with a lightweight evolutionary framework that operates directly in the layout space. The method formalizes multi-term fitness combining utilization, overlap penalties, spacing regularity, and local alignment, with all components normalized before aggregation. Feasibility is enforced by an AABB– SAT pipeline and validated via analytic ground-truth cases, degenerate…
