This paper presents an advanced optimization technique to solve unit commitment problems and reliability issues simultaneously for thermal generating units. To solve unit commitment, generalized benders decomposition along with genetic algorithm to include minimum up/down time constraints are proposed, and for reliability issues consideration, a fuzzy stochastic-based technique is presented. To implement the problem into […]
The multi-phase permanent-magnet motors are suitable choices for certain purposes like aircrafts, marine, and electric vehicles due to the fault tolerance and high-power density capabilities. The paper aims to design and prototype an optimized five-phase fractional slot concentrated windings surface mounted permanent magnet motor. To optimize the designed multi-phase motor, a multi-objective optimization technique based […]
