The Harmony Search algorithm has attracted a lot of interest in the past years because of its simplicity and efficiency. This led many scientists to develop various variants for many applications. In this paper, four variants of the Harmony search algorithm were implemented and tested to optimize the control design of the Proportional-Integral-derivative (PID) controller in a proposed airflow control scheme. The airflow control strategy has been proposed to deal with the undesired stalling phenomenon of the Wells turbine in an Oscillating Water Column (OWC). To showcase the effectiveness of the Self-Adaptive Global Harmony Search (SGHS) algorithm over traditional tuning methods, a comparative study has been carried out between the optimized PID, the traditionally tuned PID and the uncontrolled OWC system. The results of optimization showed that the Self-Adaptive Global Harmony Search (SGHS) algorithm adapted the best to the problem of the airflow control within the wave energy converter. Moreover, the OWC performance is superior when using the SGHS-tuned PID.

This study presents, two load shedding scheme that are simulated on IEEE-14 bus systems are voltage dependent priority based approach and voltage and frequency based NVSI methods. The frequency-based method is designed to consider the rate of change of frequency to estimate the power loss and thereby trigger the load shedding when the frequency or rate of change of frequency exceeds the corresponding thresholds. A novel method voltage and frequency-based load shedding scheme is designed to estimate the real and reactive power losses using frequency. After estimating the power loss, the buses are indexed using the Novel Voltage Stability Index (NVSI) to select the load buses for load shedding. The loads to be shed at each of the buses are determined using the improved self adaptive harmony search(ISAHS) algorithm. Simulation results of voltage and frequency based NVSI method are presented in comparison with voltage dependent priority based approach.
