Therefore, the genetic-ant algorithm is introduced into the design of manned submersible control panel layouts. Based on the cognitive characteristics of humans, layout optimization principles are summarized and incorporated into the objective function variables during the optimization process. The fitness function, pheromone, and heuristic information expressions for optimizing the control panel layout of manned submersibles are studied to establish the genetic-ant algorithm flow for use in the optimization design process. Taking the control panel layout design of a certain type of manned submersible as an example, multi-objective optimization calculations are performed to quantify the layout principles and combine them with the algorithm, thus verifying the feasibility of the proposed method.
