In this paper, the gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is proposed as a method for controlling opening and closing of airplane wing tires. The GSA used to find optimum proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller, which controls tires during take-off landing. addition, suggested an approach overcoming absence transfer function, usually required design PID. use expected improve system. Two...

Fossil-fuel-based power generation leads to higher energy costs and environmental impacts. Solar wind are abundant important renewable sources (RES) that make the largest contribution replacing fossil-fuel-based consumption. However, uncertain solar radiation highly fluctuating weather parameters of require an accurate reliable forecasting mechanism for effective efficient load management, cost...

response surface methodology is a common tool in optimizing processes. it mainly concerns situations when there is only one response of interest. however, many designed experiments often involve simultaneous optimization of several quality characteristics. this is called a multiresponse surface optimization problem. a common approach in dealing with these problems is to apply desirability funct...

This paper proposes an augmented Lagrange Hopfield network (ALHN) for combined heat and power economic dispatch (CHPED) problem. The ALHN method is the continuous Hopfield neural network with its energy function based on augmented Lagrangian relaxation. In the proposed ALHN, the energy function is augmented by Hopfield terms from Hopfield neural network and penalty factors from augmented Lagran...

wireless sensor networks are the new generation of networks that typically are formed great numbers of nodes and the communications of these nodes are done as wireless. the main goal of these networks is collecting data from neighboring environment of network sensors. since the sensor nodes are battery operated and there is no possibility of charging or replacing the batteries, the lifetime of ...

As Distribution Systems are growing large and being stretched too far, electric utilities and end users of electric power are becoming increasingly concerned about meeting the growing electric demand. Hence efforts have been made by electric utilities to reduce the losses in the distribution system. In this dissertation work, Network Reconfiguration and Optimal Distributed Generation placement ...

This paper presents an attempt to explore the applicability of harmony search algorithm (HSA) to solve extremely challenging non-convex economic load dispatch (ELD) problem with transmission losses involving variations of consumer load patterns. The efficiency of the proposed approach HSA has been tested successfully on the standard 6-bus system, IEEE-14 bus system, and the IEEE-30 bus system w...

Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is the task of determining which sense of an ambiguous word (word with multiple meanings) is chosen in a particular use of that word, by considering its context. A sentence is considered ambiguous if it contains ambiguous word(s). Practically, any sentence that has been classified as ambiguous usually has multiple interpretations, but just one of them presents th...
