Abstract
This paper presents a plan for optimizing transducer and motor designs. Designing transducers or motors always requires analysis of several parameters such as length, temperature, efficiency, weight, etc. To obtain the optimum results for given specifications, the method suggested here globally analyzes all the free parameters in one step, with an optimization algorithm based on Matlab software that includes the optimization toolbox. A general module makes it possible then to get the optimum design according to the constraints of the problem. In the future, the authors will develop a module for each type of transducer and motor as well as a module for the driver.
