چکیده

The objective of this paper is to evolve simple and effective methods for the optimal power flow (OPF) problem in thermal units, which are capable of obtaining optimal power generations for a large-scale system. In optimization, GA has some well-known advantages and disadvantages. The classical (derivative based) method is applied as economic dispatch problem with transmission capacity constraints in literature. In this study, a similar investigation for economic dispatch is considered using simple Genetic Algorithm. The performance of results obtained with both of the methods is nearly same but from the viewpoint of calculation time GA is much superior and its effectiveness increases as the constraints of the problem are increased.

Improved teaching–learning-based and JAYA optimization algorithms for solving flexible flow shop scheduling problems

Flexible flow shop (or a hybrid flow shop) scheduling problem is an extension of classical flow shop scheduling problem. In a simple flow shop configuration, a job having ‘g’ operations is performed on ‘g’ operation centres (stages) with each stage having only one machine. If any stage contains more than one machine for providing alternate processing facility, then the problem...
