Abstract
A Planetary Gear Train (PGT) can be represented by a graph and this graph in turn is converted to a link to link adjacency symmetric matrix. Identifying isomorphism in structural synthesis of PGT is very important. Several methods have been adopted by various researchers to test for isomorphism in PGTs and out of these isomorphic PGTs one PGT is selected at random. There is no definite basis for selecting a particular PGT out of these isomorphic PGTs for further generation process. Structural aspects and rating of the PGTs are useful in selecting one such PGT for further generation process. Symmetry in PGTs is one such aspect. Hamming matrix is used to measure the structural aspect of symmetry in PGTs. Symmetry in PGT results in more number of structural arrangements i.e. more symmetry in EGTs results in higher number of structural arrangements as compared to EGTs with no or less symmetry.
