The short-term hydrothermal scheduling (STHTS) problem has paramount importance in an interconnected power system. Owing to operational research problem, it been a basic concern of companies minimize fuel costs. To solve STHTS, cascaded topology four hydel generators with one equivalent thermal generator is considered. complex and non-linear equality inequality constraints, including water disc...

Several attacks against physical pin-tumbler locks require access to one or more key blanks to perform. These attacks include bumping, impressioning, rightsamplification, and teleduplication. To mitigate these attacks, many lock systems rely on restricted keyways and use blanks that are not sold to the general public, making it harder for attackers to obtain them. Often the key blank designs th...

Oddly, criminal prohibition can lead to “commoning,” when individuals, left unprotected by state and formal property rights, innovate collective systems access, use, benefit from illegalized resources. “Legalization” entails the conversion of these prohibited commons legal systems, bringing new freedoms liberties as well dispossession collectively generated assets (material, relational, otherwi...

This paper gives a new modified technique for evaluating non-convex economic dispatch (NCED) problem having non-linear, discontinuous cost function. This new particle swarm optimization technique incorporates time varying acceleration coefficients (NPSOTVAC). The highly non-linear cost function due to ramp rate limit, prohibited operating zones and valve point loading effect is considered in th...
