<p>OPTIMIZED BANK PENETRATION SYSTEM A method of optimizing machine performance in a plurality of load cases (66) is provided. The method (66) comprises determining a maximum load case for the machine, the maximum load case involving the application of a maximum force to at least one member of the machine (68); determining, for each of a plurality of member joints of the machine, a maximum member joint load for the maximum load case for the machine (70); and operating the machine by applying a force to the at least one member of the machine in each of the plurality of load cases so as not to exceed the maximum member joint load, the applied force exceeding the maximum force during at least one of the plurality of load cases (72).</p> |
