Artificial bee colony algorithm applied to optimal power flow solution incorporating stochastic wind power

Abstract

<span lang="EN-US">This paper focuses on the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, which is a nonlinear optimization problem. is proposed to find the optimal power flow (OPF). To solve this problem, we will apply the ABC algorithm to a power system incorporating wind power. The proposed approach is applied on a standard IEEE-30 system with wind farms located on different buses and with different penetration levels to show the impact of wind farms on the system in order to obtain the optimal settings of control variables of the OPF problem. Based on technical results obtained, the ABC algorithm is shown to achieve a lower cost and losses than the other methods applied, while incorporating wind power into the system, high performance would be gained.</span>

Optimal design of CMOS current mode instrumentation amplifier using bio-inspired method for biomedical applications

“…The value of "affinity" (provided by the objective function) refers to the food source's quality. In general, the optimization process mimics the search for bees for important food sources resulting in a process analogous to finding optimal solutions [20], [21].…”

Optimal proportional-integral speed control for closed-loop engine timing system

“…TLBO outperformed many other rigorous optimization techniques due to the absence of any tunable gains and weighting factors. Recently, many different evolutionary algorithms have been used, which include the gravitational-search algorithm [18]− [21], grey wolf optimizer [22]− [24], and artificial bee colony algorithm [25]− [27]. This paper optimizes the HDV speed controller's proportional-integral (PI) gains (KP and KI) to achieve better accurate reference tracking performance under variable drive cycles.…”

Design of current controlled instrumental amplifier by using complementary metallic oxide semiconductor technology

“…Currently the second generation vector current (CCII) is becoming popular because it can be used to obtain good electronic tuning and very wide operating frequency in the most applications in high frequency analog signals [8]. CCII can be used as main parameter of servomotors, oscillators and other current mode applications [9]. The parasitic resistance that appears in circuits for the mentioned current carriers is one of the defects of electronic circuits [10].…”
