Application of firefly algorithm for multi-stage transmission expansion planning with adequacy-security considerations in deregulated environments

Electric energy is the most popular form of energy because it can be transported easily at high efficiency and reasonable cost. Nowadays the real-world electric power systems are large-scale and highly complex interconnected transmission systems. The transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem is a large-scale optimization, complicated and nonlinear problem that the number of candidate solutions increases exponentially with system size. Investment cost, reliability (both adequacy and security), and congestion cost are considered in this optimization. To overcome the difficulties in solving the non-convex and mixed integer nature of this optimization problem, this paper offers a firefly algorithm (FA) to solve this problem. In this paper it is shown that FA, like other heuristic optimization algorithms, can solve the problem in a better manner compare with other methods such genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), Simulated Annealing (SA) and Differential Evolution (DE). To show the feasibility of proposed method, applied model has been considered in IEEE 24-Bus, IEEE 118-Bus and Iran 400-KV transmission grid case studies for TEP problem in both adequacy and security modes. The obtained results show the capability of the proposed method. A comprehensive analysis of the GA, PSO, SA and DE with proposed method is also presented.     

Rapid optimization of blast wave mitigation strategies using Quiet Direct Simulation and Genetic Algorithm

Presented is a rapid calculation tool for the optimization of blast wave related mitigation strategies. The motion of gas resulting from a blast wave (specified by the user) is solved by the Quiet Direct Simulation (QDS) method - a rapid kinetic theory-based finite volume method. The optimization routine employed is a newly developed Genetic Algorithm (GA) which is demonstrated to be similar to a Differential Evolution (DE) scheme with several modifications. In any Genetic Algorithm, individuals contain genetic information which is passed on to newly created individuals in successive generations. The results from unsteady QDS simulations are used to determine the individual's “genetic fitness” which is employed by the proposed Genetic Algorithm during the reproduction process. The combined QDS/GA algorithm is applied to various test cases and finally the optimization of a non-trivial blast wave mitigation strategy. Both QDS and the proposed GA are demonstrated to perform with minimal computational expense while accurately solving the optimization problems presented.     

Multi-operator based evolutionary algorithms for solving constrained optimization problems

Over the last two decades, many sophisticated evolutionary algorithms have been introduced for solving constrained optimization problems. Due to the variability of characteristics in different COPs, no single algorithm performs consistently over a range of problems. In this paper, for a better coverage of the problem characteristics, we introduce an algorithm framework that uses multiple search operators in each generation. The appropriate mix of the search operators, for any given problem, is determined adaptively. The framework is tested by implementing two different algorithms. The performance of the algorithms is judged by solving 60 test instances taken from two constrained optimization benchmark sets from specialized literature. The first algorithm, which is a multi-operator based genetic algorithm (GA), shows a significant improvement over different versions of GA (each with a single one of these operators). The second algorithm, using differential evolution (DE), also confirms the benefit of the multi-operator algorithm by providing better and consistent solutions. The overall results demonstrated that both GA and DE based algorithms show competitive, if not better, performance as compared to the state of the art algorithms.

EXPLICA: An Explorative Imperialist Competitive Algorithm based on the notion of Explorers with an expansive retention policy

Meta-heuristic algorithms are of considerable importance in solving optimization problems. This importance is more highlighted when the problems to be optimized are too complicated to achieve a solution using conventional methods or, the traditional methods are somehow not applicable for solving them. Imperial Competitive Algorithm has been proved to be an efficient and effective meta-heuristic optimization algorithm and it has been successfully applied in many scientific and engineering problems. By introducing the concept of explorers and retention policy, the original algorithm is enhanced with a dynamic population mechanism in this paper and hence, the performance of the Imperial Competitive Algorithm is improved. Performance of the proposed modification is tested with experiments of optimizing real-values functions and results are compared with results obtained with the original Imperialistic Competitive Algorithm, Genetic Algorithm, Particle Swarm Optimization and Simulated Annealing. Also, the applicability of the proposed improvement is verified by optimizing a ship propeller design problem.

This paper presents an improved fruit fly optimization algorithm (IFFOA) for solving the multidimensional knapsack problem (MKP). In IFFOA, the parallel search is employed to balance exploitation and exploration.

Modified firefly algorithm for multidimensional optimization in structural design problems

An enhanced nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm, called the modified firefly algorithm (MFA) is proposed for multidimensional structural design optimization. The MFA incorporates metaheuristic components, namely logistic and Gauss/mouse chaotic maps, adaptive inertia weight, and Lévy flight with a conventional firefly algorithm (FA) to improve its optimization capability. The proposed MFA has several advantages over its traditional FA counterpart. Logistic chaotic maps provide a diverse initial population. Gauss/mouse maps allow the tuning of the FA attractiveness parameter. The adaptive inertia weight controls the local exploitation and the global exploration of the search process. Lévy flight is used in the exploitation of the MFA. The proposed MFA was evaluated by comparing its performance in solving a series of benchmark functions with those of the FA and other well-known optimization algorithms. The efficacy of the MFA was then proven by its solutions to three multidimensional structural design optimization problems; MFA yielded the best solutions among the observed algorithms. Experimental results revealed that the proposed MFA is more efficient and effective than the compared algorithms. Therefore, the MFA serves as an alternative algorithm for solving multidimensional structural design optimization problems.
