Abstract
Shape grammars are shown to be capable of generating coupled form-function devices by first satisfying the minimum required functionality and then mod ifying the device to obtain the desired specifications. Advantages of a wei ghted U-22 algebra in conjunction with a U-12 grammar are also discussed. T he approach is demonstrated by describing a shape grammar for the design of MEMS resonators.
