Particle Swarm Optimization for Hydraulic Analysis of Water Distribution Systems

The analysis of flow in water-distribution networks with several pumps by the Content Model may be turned into a non-convex optimization uncertain problem with multiple solutions. Newton-based methods such as GGA are not able to capture a global optimum in these situations. On the other hand, evolutionary methods designed to use the population of individuals may find a global solution even for ...

Haar Wavelet Collocation Method for Thermal Analysis of Porous Fin with Temperature-dependent Thermal Conductivity and Internal Heat Generation

In this study, the thermal performance analysis of porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat generation is carried out using Haar wavelet collocation method. The effects of various parameters on the thermal characteristics of the porous fin are investigated. It is found that as the porosity increases, the rate of heat transfer from the fin increases and the th...

coordination of protective schemes in distribution and subtransmission systems including distributed generation

نصب منابع پراکنده در سیستم های توزیع و فوق توزیع علاوه بر مزیت های فراوان، مشکلاتی را هم به همراه دارد. یکی از این مشکلات تأثیر این منابع روی اندازه جریان های اتصال کوتاه است. به طور معمول از حفاظت های مبتنی بر اصل جریان زیاد در سیستم های توزیع و فوق توزیع استفاده می شود. از مهمترین طرح های حفاظتی استفاده شده در فیدرهای توزیع، حفاظت فیوز- ریکلوزر است. همچنین از طرح های حفاظتی جریان زیاد جهتی در...

Passive Teleoperation of Hydraulic Systems Dedication

Hydraulic machines have been widely used in a variety of high power applications. Typically these machines are operated by an operator. In past research the interaction safety between the operator and the machine was seldom investigated. This dissertation addressess the interaction stability issue by exploiting the safety guarantees offered by passive systems. The hydraulic machine considered i...
