Abstract

Optimisation is the process of finding the best design parameters that meet engineering needs and provides an inexpensive and flexible tool to define optimal designs to the industry prior to physical application. Engineers use empirical studies, statistical methods and optimisation techniques to evaluate research and determine the best design. In recent years, optimisation studies in the field of engineering has become an area of intensive work. The design optimisation of the bearings is one of these studies. In the design of bearings, there are various constraints such as geometric, kinematic, power, performance, long life and high reliability. An optimal design methodology is needed to perform these constraints collectively. In the literature, there are studies in which conventional and intelligent optimisation techniques are used for the optimisation of bearings. In this article, a source research is carried out, which includes the studies for the optimisation of bearings.
