Why use a genetic algorithm for flywheel design?

The problem is that while researchers have a reasonable idea how to design and analyze an isometric (single material) flywheel, there are no closed formulas yet to help us select the composition and shape of composite flywheels. Current research does allow us to approximate the analysis of composite flywheel design. Such a situation, where we have an method of analytical feedback, but no direct formula for design is perfectly suited to an evolutionary computation method such as a genetic algorithm.
