Visual ADS

Visual ADS v.1.00 is a Windows version of the ADS optimization program, A FORTRAN PROGRAM FOR AUTOMATED DESIGN SYNTHESIS version 3.00, created by G. N. Vanderplaats for VMA ENGINEERING in 1987.

The program has the following two advantages:

• It has input data selection windows for each parameters, which are required in order to carry out the optimization operation: Strategies, Optimizer, one-dimensional search, output data options and initial values of design variables.
• It groups all the necessary operations into one program with a view to carrying out the optimization process from beginning to end. The program will first call the compiler that creates the problem executable in a FORTRAN subroutine mode and then call a text program to display the optimization process results.
