A Multi-Objective Allocation Approach for Power Quality Monitoring Devices

A new approach for solving fuzzy multi-objective quadratic programming of water resource allocation problem

An Multi-Objective Approach for Power Quality Improvement: UPQC

This paper presents a multi-objective control strategy for power quality issues. With increasing applications of nonlinear and semi-conductor devices in distribution systems and industries, power-quality (PQ) problems, such as harmonics, neutral current elimination, voltage sag, voltage swell reactive power has become an unavoidable issue. Due to the changing trends and restructuring of power s...

A location-allocation model in the multi-level supply chain with multi-objective evolutionary approach

In the current competitive conditions, all the manufacturers’ efforts are focused on increasing the customer satisfaction as well as reducing the production and delivery costs; thus, there is an increasing concentration on the structure and principles of supply chain (SC). Accordingly, the present research investigated simultaneous optimization of the total costs of a chain and customer satisfa...

a benchmarking approach to optimal asset allocation for insurers and pension funds

uncertainty in the financial market will be driven by underlying brownian motions, while the assets are assumed to be general stochastic processes adapted to the filtration of the brownian motions. the goal of this study is to calculate the accumulated wealth in order to optimize the expected terminal value using a suitable utility function. this thesis introduced the lim-wong’s benchmark fun...

FACTS Devices Allocation Using a Novel Dedicated Improved PSO for Optimal Operation of Power System

Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) controllers with its ability to directly control the power flow can offer great opportunities in modern power system, allowing better and safer operation of transmission network. In this paper, in order to find type, size and location of FACTS devices in a power system a Dedicated Improved Particle Swarm Optimization (DIPSO) algorithm is developed for de...
