In this paper, a combination of simulated annealing (SA) and intelligent water drops (IWD) algorithm is used to solve the nonlinear/complex problem of simultaneous reconfiguration with optimal allocation (size and location) of wind turbine (WT) as a distributed generation (DG) and dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) as a distributed flexible AC transmission systems (DFACT) unit in a distribution sys...

This paper presents the Clonal selection algorithmic approach to minimize power loss and energy cost by optimal capacitor placement and sizing in Radial Distribution System (RDS). The clonal selection optimization for optimal capacitor allocation is considering the daily load curve, which is represented by a given number of load levels. As an important branch of the Artificial Immune Systems (A...

Currently, many wind farms exist throughout the world and, in some cases, supply a significant portion of energy to networks. However, numerous uncertainties remain with respect to the amount of energy generated by wind turbines and other sophisticated operational aspects, such as voltage and reactive power management, which requires further development and consideration. To fix the problem of ...

in this research optimal reconfiguration strategy of the improved srr reconfigurable mobile robot based on force-angle stability measure has been designed using genetic algorithm. path tracking nonlinear controller which keeps robot’s maximum stability has been designed and simulated in matlab. motion equations of the robot have been derived in parametric form by means of newton- euler, lagrang...

the harmonic in distribution systems becomes an important problem due to an increase in nonlinear loads. this paper presents a new approach based on a graph algorithm for optimum placement of passive harmonic filters in a multi-bus system, which suffers from harmonic current sources. the objective of this paper is to minimize the network loss, the cost of the filter and the total harmonic disto...
