Generación automática de variantes de trayectorias aplicada al diseño óptimo bajo criterios múltiples de redes hidráulicas de abasto.

Determining the most efficient trajectories of networks, installations or transportation roads is a problem to a lot of investigators of different fields: Computer Science, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Hydraulics, etc. Solutions should be carried out taking into account a high integration of information in the analysis and study process of the task, the application of the modern methods of preparation and decision making, as well as the rational organization of the procedures of engineering calculation. Several conditions regarding the surroundings are taken into account in engineering projects while defining the layout of trajectories. These trajectories, in spite of their different designations, can coincide at certain parts and share limited spaces. For this reason, any system for the automatic generation of possible trajectories should consider space limitations when establishing the type and dimensions. This paper shows a procedure that, aided by a computer system, allows to immediately get closed trajectory possibilities which, depending on the network's application, will be optimized under efficiency criteria.
