This paper proposes an algorithm for optimal placement of FACTS devices in transmission line to maintain the power system voltage stability and optimal sizing of the FACTS device. The aim of this paper is to improve voltage stability and reduce the total power losses. Here, voltage stability means no variation in the voltages of each bus beyond its boundaries and system stability is the ability...

Robust motion and force tracking control of robot manipulators in the presence of parametric uncertainties in both the robot dynamics and the contact surface as well as edema1 disturbances is considered in this paper. Several approaches are adopted to compare their advantages. In the absence of time-varying disturbances, a continuous adaptive motion and force tracking control algorithm is devel...

this paper introduces a technique for controlling a class of uncertain chaotic systems using an adaptive fuzzy proportional-integrator-derivative (pid) controller with h∞ tracking performance. the purpose of this work is to achieve optimal tracking performance of the controller using backtracking search algorithm (bsa). bsa, which is a novel heuristic algorithm, has an easy structure with singl...

In a de-regulated open access environment, reactive power is one of the ancillary services which must be provided by an Independent System Operator (ISO). In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed in which reactive power resources are initially so tuned that optimum security in terms of voltage profile and voltage stability are achieved while at the same time, the system losses are minimized. ...

Oscillations of power systems cause instability in power networks. Power system stabilizer (PSS) is used as a conventional method to damp these oscillations . Finding the optimized gain of PSS is one of the major problems in power system stability issue. In this paper, single machine connected to an infinite bus and 10-machines 39-bus network are considered for study. it's shown that finding th...

Optimal load of mobile robots, while carrying a load with predefined motion precision is an important consideration regarding their applications. In this paper a general formulation for finding maximum load carrying capacity of flexible joint mobile manipulators is presented. Meanwhile, overturning stability of the system and precision of the motion on the given end-effector trajectory are take...

Repetitive processes are a distinct class of 2D systems of both theoretical and practical interest. The stability theory for these processes currently consists of two distinct concepts termed asymptotic stability and stability along the pass respectively where the former is a necessary condition for the latter. Recently applications have arisen where asymptotic stability is too weak and stabili...
