Thus far, the essence of the GA in both theoretical and practical domains has been well demonstrated. The concept of applying a GA to solve engineering problems is feasible and sound. However, despite the distinct advantages of a GA for solving complicated, constrained and multiobjective functions where other techniques may have failed, the full power of the GA in engineering application is yet to be exploited and explored.
