This paper studies many Genetic Algorithm strategies to solve hard-constrained optimization problems. It investigates the role of various genetic operators to avoid premature convergence. In particular, an analysis of niching methods is carried out on a simple function to showadvantages and drawbacks of each of them. Comparisons are also performed on an original benchmark based on an electrode shape optimization technique coupled with a charge simulation method.
