in direct torque control, the selection of an applied voltage vector is based on the measuredparameters at the beginning of the sampling period. the delay between the measurement and the application of the voltage vector is the origin of an extra torque ripple. in this paper, a new predictive controller is proposed for compensating this delay and reducing the torque ripple. the stator current i...

the range imaging based on conventional pulse compression technique requires lfm signal that sampled by nyquist rate. in order to high resolution increased in range in pulse compression, so the lfm bandwidth has to increase. consequently this procedure dictated limitations on adc sampling. the stretch processing is one of techniques decreasing nyquist rate in radars. in this method the nature o...

diversion dams in order to raise the water level of river and conveys of water into the main canal irrigation network is designed. if the dimensions of different parts of the diversion dam be considered large, stability will be supplying, but due to the increase volume of materials, construction costs will be more. design engineer must choose sections of dam that had least amount of materials a...

imagine you have traveled to an unfamiliar city. before you start your daily tour around the city, you need to know a good route. in network theory (nt), this is the traveling salesman problem (tsp). a dynamic programming algorithm is often used for solving this problem. however, when the road network of the city is very complicated and dense, which is usually the case, it will take too long fo...

this paper presents a biogeography-based optimization (bbo) algorithm to solve the economic loaddispatch (eld) problem with generator constraints in thermal plants. the applied method can solvethe eld problem with constraints like transmission losses, ramp rate limits, and prohibited operatingzones. biogeography is the science of the geographical distribution of biological species. the modelsof...

A teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm is a new population-based algorithm applied in some applications in the literature successfully. Moreover, a genetic algorithm (GA) is a popular tool employed widely in many disciplines of engineering. In this paper, a hybrid GA-TLBO algorithm is proposed for the capacitated three-stage supply chain network design (SCND) problem. The SCND ...

 Numerous problems in engineering and science can be converted into optimization problems. Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a newly developed stochastic optimization algorithm and has been widely used in many areas. However, due to the stochastic characteristics of its solution search equation, the traditional ABC algorithm often suffers from poor exploitation. Aiming at this weakness o...

Guiding vehicles to their destination under dynamic traffic conditions is an important topic in the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Nowadays, many complex systems can be controlled by using multi agent systems. Adaptation with the current condition is an important feature of the agents. In this research, formulation of dynamic guidance for vehicles has been investigated based...

Power system stabilizers (PSSs) must be capable of providing appropriate stabilization signals over abroad range of operating conditions and disturbances. The main idea of this paper is changing aclassic PSS (CPSS) to an adaptive PSS using genetic algorithm. This new genetic algorithm based onadaptive PSS (GAPSS) improves power system damping, considerably. The controller design issue isformula...

This paper introduces the optimization algorithm to improve search rate in urban path routing problems using viral infection and local search in urban environment. This algorithm operates based on two different approaches including wavelet transform and genetic algorithm. The variables proposed by driver such as degree of difficulty and difficulty traffic are of the essence in this technique. W...
