Genetic algorithm (GA) is used for the topological optimization of phononic crystal thin plate composed of aluminum and epoxy resin. Plane wave expansion (PWE) method is used for calculations of band gaps. Fourier displacement property is used to calculate the structure function in PWE. The crossover rate and the mutation rate are calculated according to the adaptive GA method. Results indicate that filling rates, symmetry, polymerization degree and material parameters are key factors for design of topological configurations. The relations between the key factors and different topologies are studied in detail.
