in this paper, a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-ii (nsga-ii) based approach is presented for distribution system reconfiguration. in contrast to the conventional ga based methods, the proposed approach does not require weighting factors for conversion of multi-objective function into an equivalent single objective function. in order to illustrate the performance of the proposed method,...

nowadays, energy plays an important role in the economic and community development of country. consequently, performance analysis of energy systems is one of the effective methods being used to prevent waste of energy resources. among the different power generation technologies, steam power plants make a significant contribution to power generation in iran, with a share of 47 % of electricity g...

I Abstract In the process of designing an electric power supply system for an aircraft, parameters like low weight and low losses are important. Reliability, robustness and low cost are other important factors. In the Saab Gripen aircraft, the design of the primary power supply of the electric flight control system was updated by exchanging a switching transistor regulator to a magnetic amplifi...
