Optimization of Mechanization Construction of Overhead Transmission Lines Based on Genetic Algorithm

More and more attention has been paid to the mechanized construction of overhead transmission lines, but there is no evaluation criteria and theoretical benchmark for the design of mechanized construction. In this paper, an evaluation system including mechanization rate, construction cost and construction working-days is proposed. Based on this evaluation method, this paper uses genetic algorithm to optimize the construction scheme. The effectiveness of the propose method is shown through case study. Case study results show that given the parameters, using the proposed evaluation model and genetic algorithm for optimization, an optimized construction scheme can be obtained that is superior to the conventional manual construction scheme. For mechanized construction scheme design, the model proposed in this paper containing three evaluation indexes can be used to evaluate the scheme, and the optimized scheme can provide reference for mechanized construction design.
