P4(35,160)
Problem Description
P3(69,120)
The idea is to x the X-coordinates of these points and
adjust their Y-coordinates to achieve a better GA value.
Allowable adjustment ranges are 10 mm for P2, 20 mm
for P3, and 5 mm for P6.
P5(34,100)
Positions of the P2, P3, and P6 are free to be changed.
The maximum stress should not exceed 15 MPa.

Triangular Plate
[1] we want to
change the values
of W and R to
reduce the amount
of material.
[2] The initial value of
the width of the bridge
is 30 mm and its
allowable range is
20-30 mm.
[3] The initial value of the
radius of the llet is 10 mm
and its allowable range is
5-15 mm.
