Presented concise implements improved real coded genetic algorithmic technique (IRECGA) for determining optimalized operative planning (short spell, hour based) in a hydel-thermic network. The network comprises of hydel and thermic producers. Hydel producers are incorporated with back to back connected multiple tanks. Restricted operating sections possess boundings for hydel producers while the loading...
Nowadays with enlargement of power grid and increasing renewable energy integration, uncertainties and randomness challenge traditional power system analysis methods. Scenarios are widely applied to deal with power system uncertainties. Especially power flow examination in transmission expansion planning needs typical scenarios to verify normal power flow, and provide useful information for auxiliary...
Due to the inverter used, DG can not only integrate the active power into power grid but also support the grid with reactive power. This paper proposes an optimal configuration methodology of renewable DG so as to maximize the penetration level of DG considering the temporal characteristics of active-reactive power (P-Q). Further, the uncertainty output of the wind generator, photovoltaic and small...
Ancient Bagan is one of the culture heritage region of Myanmar and most tourist attraction areas. The trip planning mobile application of Ancient Bagan region is developed for providing efficient access to location-based information requires on the trip anywhere and anytime. The spatial index structure is an important role for retrieving the two dimensional geographical location effectively and efficiently...
This article covers the comparison of a primitive Dissipating-Predictive-State Planning Actor-Critic learning approach with SARSA(λ) (State-Action-Reward-State-Action) on the highly non-stationary competitive Cat and Mouse problem. The primary objective of the new algorithm was to minimize the number of constants that must be optimized before application while maintaining the performance found in...
Examination timetable (ETT) is a complex administrative task at educational institutions that must fulfill various constraints to generate the ETT to schedule exam sessions within a precise period. The ETT problem could be modeled as Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSPs). In addition, it could be particularly investigated by Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) approach. This paper uses a real examination...
A solid and practical approach for designing an optimal secondary distribution network is proposed. The methodology starts by optimally locating and sizing medium voltage/low voltage transformers then finding the optimal path for secondary circuits. The optimal number of transformers and their location are determined by k-means clustering algorithm, and validated using Davies-Bouldin index. In addition,...
The dynamics is very high activity spurred the development of the Surabaya city is very fast and the population growth is increasingly crowded. With the rapid growth of the population, as a source of land supply for housing development into the needs of each individual becomes increasingly limited. According to suitability of land for planning the development of residential areas in West Surabaya,...
Distributed generations play important role for power quality such as losses reduction, voltage profile and reliability improvement. However on its implementation, to obtain optimal solution installation DG have to be planned properly. Hence, it is important to determine optimal location and size of DG during the planning of active distribution system to achieve minimum losses. This paper proposes...
We show an application of Moran's Index to process and analyze the waterbody-spread extracted from remotely sensed data. A method that is employed to quantify division-wise waterbody-spread, district-wise waterbody-spread and taluk-wise waterbody-spread spatial complexity is based on Moran's Index computation. The waterbody-spread data for each of the hierarchically partitioned geographical unit-wise...
According to the United Nations, economically prosperity, socially equity and environmentally sustainability are the core concepts of Smart Growth. Thus four indicators are defined which reflect these concepts. They are City Area and GDP Per Capita (AGPC), Construction of Public Transports Development Index (PTDI), Construction of Average Cultural Degree of the City (ACDC) and Construction of Urban...
Construction of efficient process for managing goods and reducing distance movement of goods to save energy are two important tasks in management warehouse. This paper will present a combination of building algorithms to determine storage location in storage and retrieval process as well as planning optimal route in each travel cycle of goods, their combination helps to manage the goods effectively...
As Thailand's electricity demand increases, the country's power supply must meet this new demand. An increasing portion of energy production from renewables will lead to a drastic change in net demand characteristic on traditional power supplies. If the overall power plants in the system cannot respond to this fluctuating and uncertain demand, it may cause generation demand to be unbalanced and lead...
We study a deterministic container transportation problem, jointly optimizing the berth allocation, quay crane assignment and yard storage allocation at container ports. The problem is formulated as an integer program to coordinate the decisions. To solve this large-scale problem, we then transform it into a set partitioning formulation, and provide a framework of branch-and-price algorithm.
We present an efficient approach to plan action sequences for a team of robots from a single finite LTL mission specification. The resulting execution strategy is proven to solve the given mission with minimal team costs, e.g., with shortest execution time. For planning, an established graph-based search method based on the multi-objective shortest path problem is adapted to multi-robot planning and...
Renewable energy sources are playing a vital role with increasing influences in modern power grid. Among various forms of renewables, wind turbine generators and solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have drawn much attention because of their relatively mature technologies and large-scale deployment worldwide. However, wind and solar power is intermittent in nature, which poses significant uncertainties...
Power terminal communication access network (PTCAN) is an important network for smart grid applications due to its ability of monitoring and remotely controlling smart power distribution devices and carrying the consumer information. In this paper, a hierarchical genetic algorithm is proposed to plan and optimize the Industrial Ethernet based PTCAN. The key idea of the algorithm is to transform the...
The world is more aware of the need for saving energy because of increasing world energy consumption and environmental problems. To promote saving energy in the domestic field, the use of home energy management systems (HEMSs) is rapidly spreading. The HEMS which has automatically controlling function can control domestic electrical appliances including air-conditioners (ACs). In this research, we...
This paper presents a simplified modeling approach for power flow equations considering on-load tap-changers (OLTCs). The modeling approach consists of only four active and reactive nodal power injections and line power flows equations, and treats the elements of Ybus admittance matrix as constant parameters. The transformer tap ratios are only included in the simplified four equations as control...
