The optimal scheduling of hydropower station is a constrained strong, nonlinear and multi-stage combinatorial optimization. Aiming at this issue, this paper analyses the shortcomings of previous PSO algorithm in hydropower station optimal scheduling model, and presents an improved PSO algorithm for hybrid BFO algorithm, which overcomes the problem that the PSO algorithm is easy to fall into local extremum and has strong dependence on parameters. A case study of a short-term scheduling period of a hydropower station is used to compare the improved PSO algorithm mixed BFO algorithm with previous PSO algorithm. The results show that the improved PSO algorithm can converge to the global optimal solution more accurately. Therefore, it provides a new method for solving the optimal scheduling model of hydropower station.

Aimed at the coordination control problem of each unit caused by microgrid participation in the spot market and considering the randomness of wind and solar output and the uncertainty of spot market prices, a day-ahead real-time two-stage optimal scheduling model for microgrid was established by using the chance-constrained programming theory. On this basis, an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on stochastic simulation technology was used to solve the problem and the effect of demand side management and confidence level on scheduling results is discussed. The example results verified the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed model, which can provide a theoretical basis in terms of reasonably coordinating the output of each unit in the microgrid in the spot market.

In the optimization design process, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is limited by its slow convergence, low precision, and tendency to easily fall into the local extremum. These limitations make degradation inevitable in the evolution process and cause failure of finding the global optimum results. In this paper, based on chaos idea, the PSO algorithm is improved by adaptively adjusting parameters r1 and r2. The improved PSO is verified by four standard mathematical test functions. The results prove that the improved algorithm exhibits excellent convergence speed, global search ability, and stability in the optimization process, which jumps out of the local optimum and achieves global optimality due to the randomness, regularity, and ergodicity of chaotic thought. At last, the improved PSO algorithm is applied to vehicle crash research and is used to carry out the multiobjective optimization based on an approximate model. Compared with the results before the improvement, the improved PSO algorithm is remarkable in the collision index, which includes vehicle acceleration, critical position intrusion, and vehicle mass. In summary, the improved PSO algorithm has excellent optimization effects on vehicle collision.

This paper deals with the optimization of the daily operation of Polerood hydropower station being constructed in the north of Iran. Dynamic Programming method (DP) is applied as the preferred optimization tool owing to the fact that it guarantees the optimal solution and is applicable to the present problem. Produced profit and peak-shaving are the two objectives considered separately in this study. The results show that the optimal water management of the case study through charging and discharging the reservoir at the appropriate times led to 4% increase in the produced profit. In another part of this study, the optimal performance strategies regarding to the two objectives (produced profit and peak-shaving) are compared. The observed similarity between the two performance strategies implies the substantial dependence of the electricity price and the network demand level. The paper ends with the profitability study of the project and the sensitivity analysis of the results to various economic parameters. Article History: Received December 15th 2017; Received in revised form April 18th 2018; Accepted September 16th 2018; Available onlineHow to Cite This Article: Feshalami, B.F.

In this paper, an improved PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm is proposed and applied to the infrared image enhancement. The contrast of infrared image is enhanced while the image details are preserved. A new exponential center symmetry inertia weight function is constructed and the local optimal solution jumping mechanism is introduced to make the algorithm consider both global search and local search. A new image enhancement method is proposed based on the advantages of bi-histogram equalization algorithm and dual-domain image decomposition algorithm. The fitness function is constructed by using five kinds of image quality evaluation factors, and the parameters are optimized by the proposed PSO algorithm, so that the parameters are determined to enhance the image. Experiments showed that the proposed PSO algorithm has good performance, and the proposed image enhancement method can not only improve the contrast of the image, but also preserve the details of the image, which has a good visual effect.

Maintenance task scheduling during mission break is described as flexible resource constraint project scheduling problem, and flexible resource constraint maintenance task scheduling model is established. Since capability level of flexible resource is different, the thesis establishes maintenance task scheduling model considering capability difference. To resolve the model, a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on activity list is presented. At last, a case study is present.

Forklift plays an important role in cargo handling in the warehouse; therefore, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the forklift when turning to guarantee the safety of transportation. In this study, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was improved by a genetic algorithm (GA), and the parameters of the proportion, integration, and differentiation (PID) controller were calculated using the improved algorithm for forklift steering control. Then simulation experiments were carried out using MATLAB. The results showed that the convergence speed of the improved PSO algorithm was faster than that of GA, and its adaptive value after convergence stability was significantly lower than that of the PSO algorithm; whether it was low-speed or high-speed steering, the three algorithms responded to the steering signal quickly; the yaw velocity and sideslip angle of the forklift steering under the improved PSO algorithm were more suitable for stable steering, and the increase of the steering speed would increase the yaw velocity. The novelty of this paper is that the traditional PSO algorithm is improved by GA and the particle swarm jumps out of the locally optimal solution through the crossover and mutation operations.
