The intelligent water drop algorithm is a swarm-based metaheuristic algorithm, inspired by the characteristics of water drops in the river and the environmental changes resulting from the action of the flowing river. Since its appearance as an alternative stochastic optimization method, the algorithm has found applications in solving a wide range of combinatorial and functional optimization pro...

The krill herd (KH) algorithm is a novel swarm intelligent algorithm which is inspired the herding behavior of the krill swarms. The various test results in the relevant literature show that the KH algorithm has better performance than the other swarm intelligent algorithm for optimization problem. In order to further improve the performance of the KH algorithm, an improved KH is proposed in th...

Reactive power dispatch for voltage profile modification has been of interest Abstract to powerr utilities. Usually local bus voltages can be altered by changing generator voltages, reactive shunts, ULTC transformers and SVCs. Determination of optimum values for control parameters, however, is not simple for modern power system networks. Heuristic and rather intelligent algorithms have to be so...

based on the problems caused by today conventional vehicles, much attention has been put on the fuel cell vehicles researches. however, using a fuel cell system is not adequate alone in transportation applications, because the load power profile includes transient that is not compatible with the fuel cell dynamic. to resolve this problem, hybridization of the fuel cell and energy storage device...

A kind of intelligent control system based on fuzzy neural network optimized and trained by the adaptive ant colony optimization algorithm was proposed and constructed in this paper. The structure and the parameters of this intelligent control system were introduced. This intelligent control system used as joint servo controller is applied to the simulation research of robot control. Simulation...

In working environments with large manipulators, accidental collisions can cause severe personal injuries and can seriously damage manipulators, necessitating the development of an emergency stop algorithm to prevent such occurrences. In this paper, we propose an emergency stop system for the efficient and safe operation of a manipulator by applying an intelligent emergency stop algorithm. Our ...

In this paper, an efficient and comprehensive hybrid intelligent technique for the optimal placement of phasor measurement units (PMUs) is proposed to minimize the number of PMU installation subjected to full network observability. Three main purposes of PMUs output synchronous measurements are monitoring, control, and protection of power system. We have combined Binary Imperialistic Competitio...

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE AR-SA MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Measurement of solar radiance demands expensive devices to be used. Alternatively, estimator models are used instead. In this paper, a new method based on the empirical equations is introduced to estimate the monthly average daily global solar radiation on a horizontal surface. The proposed method uses Intelligent Water ...

An intelligent strategy for the protection of AC microgrids is presented in this paper. This method was halving to an initial signal processing step and a machine learning-based forecasting step. The initial stage investigates currents and voltages with a window-based approach based on the dynamic decomposition method (DDM) and then involves the norms of the signals to the resultant DDM data. T...
