Introduction:The genetic algorithm is a problem solving technique that uses the metaphor ofevolutionary biology in its approach. A population of potential solutions aregenerated and tested for their ability to solve the problem. If one of the solutionssolves the problem the process is complete.

LensAbstract:Physics generally falls under engineering programs yet is required for a multitude of differentmajors spanning many departments and disciplines including medicine. When people think aboutthe medical field, their mind immediately goes to classes such as biology, chemistry, anatomyand physiology. However, when looking at the prerequisite courses for medical school or testedMCAT content, there seems to be one subject that doesn’t fit in with the rest: physics. For years,pre-health students have joked that physics is much less applicable to their future careers than theother courses. The goal of this research paper is to tackle the general student assumption thatunderstanding physics will not help them in their respective fields by providing real

highlysophisticated computer programs are available (e.g., Adams), able to solve special problemsfrom the area of Multibody Systems or even nearly every general type of engineeringdynamics problem. The use of such software has some drawbacks for students however.There is a high risk to waste valuable time by learning how to use software that was notdesigned for educational use but was instead designed for large scale problems in industry.And, what is even worse, students do not really see how the software works, because thetransition from the theoretical to numerical concepts is usually not visible in the software.To deal with this challenge, this paper presents a strategy based on the software Matlab,usually known by engineering students.
