in this study, application of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) in forecasting three perspectives (1, 2, and 4 years) ahead of iran’s agricultural products export was compared with arima as the most common econometrics linear forecasting method. for this purpose, iran’s agricultural products export revenues related to 1959-2010, and forecast performance measures such as r2, mad, and...

Active power filter continues to be a powerful tool to control harmonics in power systems thereby enhancing the power quality. This paper presents a fuzzy tuned PID controller based shunt active filter to diminish the harmonics caused by non linear loads like thyristor bridge rectifiers and imbalanced loads. Here Fuzzy controller provides the tuning of PID, based on firing of thyristor bridge r...

This paper presents an overview of different control methods which are applied on Shunt Active Power Filter to achieve harmonics reduction and power factor improvement. In recent decades, the world has seen an expansion in the use of non-linear loads. These loads draw a non-sinusoidal current from the source and distribute them throughout the system. As a result the power quality degrades. Ther...

Constant-power loads are notoriously known to destabilise power systems, such as DC microgrids, due to their negative incremental impedance. This paper equips distributed generation units with decentralised L1 adaptive controllers at the primary level of the microgrid control hierarchy. Necessary and sufficient conditions are provided to local controllers for overall microgrid stability when co...

This paper deals with the elimination of harmonics at PCC in the presence of non-linear type of loads. Introduction of five-level DSTATCOM at PCC injects compensating currents for the minimization of harmonic content in the source currents. Non-linear loads when connected to the system draw non-linear components of current leaving undesired harmonics at the source side. DSTATCOM when connected ...

It is a well-known fact that cache hits are vital to superscalar processor performance. The successful execution of a load allows resources to be freed up and it also allows dependent instructions to proceed to execution. As processor cores operating frequencies rise rapidly, the cache hierarchy is struggling to keep up in terms of speed while still trying to provide good hit rates, because the...

The problem of controlling three-phase, four-leg shunt active power filters (SAPF) is addressed in presence of nonlinear and/or unbalanced loads. A new control model for four-leg SAPF, taking into account for the electrical grid line impedance, is developed. The control objective is threefold: (i) compensating for the current harmonics and the reactive power absorbed by the nonlinear load; (ii)...
