This article presents a Particle Swarm Optimization with timevarying acceleration coefficients (TVAC-PSO) technique for the design of Integral (I) controller for the Load Frequency Control (LFC) system. The LFC modeling is carried out for Multi-area interconnected power systems (MAIPS). The power system comprises non-reheat thermal unit in each control area. The controller gains have been optim...

Objective: A Modified Shuffled Frog Leaping (MSFL) algorithm based Multi-stage Fuzzy (MSF) PID controller is proposed in this paper to solve the Load Frequency Control (LFC) problem in a deregulated environment. The power system LFC problems are caused by small load perturbations which continuously disturb the normal operation of power system. The objectives of LFC are to minimize the transient...

Many adults have poor dietary habits and few studies have focused on mechanisms underlying these behaviors. This study examined psychosocial determinants of dietary behavior change in university employes across a 5-month period. Participants completed measures of fruit and vegetable consumption (FVC) and low fat food consumption (LFC) and social cognitive constructs. Multiple regression analyse...

This paper presents the Load frequency control (LFC) of a multi-source power system with Redox flow batteries (RFB). The power system comprises non-reheat thermal, hydro and gas generating units. RFB is integrated to the LFC system to improve the dynamic responses. The proportional plus integral (PI) controller is designed using the PSO technique. Dynamic responses are obtained by giving 1% ste...

conclusions it seems that hp eradication per se might not affect lfc, lft, lipid profile, and insulin resistance in dyspeptic nafld patients. results one hundred (49 males) patients with the mean age of 43.46 (± 11.52) were studied. repeated measure anova showed a significant reduction in lfc, anthropometric measurements, and laboratory parameters (except for hdl) in the both groups during the ...

This paper presents in a systematic way problems encountered in the construction of Lyapunov function candidates for descriptor systems. The solutions to some of the major difficulties in the application of Lyapunov’s direct method to descriptor systems are presented. Some new results regarding the extension of Lyapunov’s direct method tied to the construction of the Lyapunov functions are give...
