In this paper a method is described for determining the design unbalance of crankshafts and also the recommended procedure for a balanced design strategy. The use of a search tool for solutions is suggested based on Genetic Algorithms (GA). GAs have been used in different applications, one of them is the optimization of geometric shapes, a relatively recent area with high research potential. The interest towards this field is growing, and it is anticipated that in the future mechanical
more » ... ng will be an area where many applications of shape optimization will be widely applied.
