This research is aimed to develop a complete code that can provide the user a path layout and an optimal speeds setup for a 1D extension system. Prior to analysis, the user needs just to provide the system configuration such as roller locations, radius, friction, and rollers speeds, then the program will output the system layout for first check. The tension analysis then follows to give users initial understanding. The complete code embarks an optimization process in which the user specifies an object function that could be tensions or speeds related and yields the optimal setup for extension process. In the searching of optimal solution, the topographical method and variable metric method are used. At last, two examples, one with minimum tension variation and one with specified tension requirement are demonstrated. The results showed the applicability of the developed method and the relations between tension and speeds as well. This computer code is believed to provide the analyzer and designer a useful tool for extension process.
