This paper presents a new hybrid method for optimal multi-objective reconfiguration in a distribution feeder in addition to determining the optimal size and location of multiple-Distributed Generation (DG). The purposes of this research are mitigation of losses, improving the voltage profile and equalizing the feeder load balancing in distribution systems. To reduce the search space, the improv...

Single-objective to multi-objective/many-objective optimization (SMO) is a new paradigm in the evolutionary transfer (ETO), since there are only “1 + 4” pioneering works on SMOs so far, that is, “1” continuous and firstly performed by Professors L. Feng H.D. Wang, “4” proposed our group for discrete cases. As computational paradigm, theoretical insights into relatively rare now. Therefore, we p...

Abstract The Chaos Game Optimization (CGO) has only recently gained popularity, but its effective searching capabilities have a lot of potential for addressing single-objective optimization issues. Despite advantages, this method can tackle problems formulated with one objective. multi-objective CGO proposed in study is utilized to handle the several objectives (MOCGO). In MOCGO, Pareto-optimal...

this paper proposes per unit coding for combined economic emission load dispatch problem. in the proposed coding, it is possible to apply the percent effects of elements in any number and with high accuracy in objective function. in the proposed per unit coding, each function is transformed into per unit form based on its own maximum value and has a value from 0 to 1. in this paper, particle sw...
