Artificial Electric Field Algorithm Applied to the Economic Load Dispatch Problem With Valve Point Loading Effect

Abstract

Economic load dispatch is to operate thermal generators economically with fulfilling load demand. This economic dispatch problem becomes highly complex and non-linear after considering various operating constraints like valve-point loading effect, generator operating constraints, and prohibited operating zone. The recently developed physics law-based artificial electric field algorithm has been applied to solve highly complex and non-linear ELD problems. The exploration and exploitation strategy of the algorithm helps to avoid local optimum value, and to get global optimum value in less computation time. The AEFA method has been applied to 10, 13, 15, 40, and large 110 thermal generators to validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The results obtained by the proposed algorithm have been compared with other recently developed algorithms.

A Fault Recovery Method for Distribution Networks With Distributed Power Sources Based on 5G Smart Terminal

“…For the fault recovery model of distribution networks containing DG, traditional optimization algorithms such as GA and PSO algorithm can no longer meet their actual needs. Therefore, the proposed method includes a new optimization SSA to solve it (Shah et al, 2023;Zhang & Tang, 2024). The SSA is a swarm intelligence optimization algorithm that mimics the foraging and antipredation behaviors of sparrows, with advantages such as simple structure and strong optimization performance (Du et al, 2024;He & Wang;.…”

A Block-Wised and Sparsely-Connected ANN for the Prediction of Human Joint Moment Based on the Improved Hill Musculoskeletal Model

“…Although the intelligent prediction of human joint moment has achieved a lot in the spine, upper limbs, lower limbs and other parts, almost all studies employ fully-connected ANN as the prediction model, which is complex in structure, time-consuming in computation, and high in storage requirement (Shah et al, 2023). Such high computational and storage costs mean that the ANN is rarely used in embedded systems.…”
