With the rising load demand and power losses, the equipment in the utility network often operates close to its marginal limits, creating a dire need for the installation of new Distributed Generators (DGs). Their proper placement is one of the prerequisites for fully achieving the benefits; otherwise, this may result in the worsening of their performance. This could even lead to further deterioration if an effective Energy Management System (EMS) is not installed. Firstly, addressing these issues, this research exploits a Genetic Algorithm (GA) for the proper placement of new DGs in a distribution system. This approach is based on the system losses, voltage profiles, and phase angle jump variations. Secondly, the energy management models are designed using a fuzzy inference system. The models are then analyzed under heavy loading and fault conditions. This research is conducted on a six bus radial test system in a simulated environment together with a real-time Power Hardware-In-the-Loop (PHIL) setup. It is concluded that the optimal placement of a 3.33 MVA synchronous DG is near the load center, and the robustness of the proposed EMS is proven by mitigating the distinct contingencies within the approximately 2.5 cycles of the operating period.

Fold Cross Validation

Virtual reality is a technology that allows users to completely interact with a computer-simulated environment, and put on new clothes to check the effect without taking off their clothes. In this paper, a virtual fit evaluation of pants using the Adaptive Network Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), VFE-ANFIS for short, is proposed. There are two stages of the VFE-ANFIS: training and evaluation. In the first stage, we trained some key pressure parameters by using the VFE-ANFIS; these key pressure parameters were collected from real try-on and virtual try-on of pants by users. In the second stage, we evaluated the fit by using the trained VFE-ANFIS, in which some key pressure parameters of pants from a new user were determined and we output the evaluation results, fit or unfit. In addition, considering the small number of input samples, we used the 10-fold cross-validation method to divide the data set into a training set and a testing set; the test accuracy of the VFE-ANFIS was 94.69% ± 2.4%, and the experimental results show that our proposed VFE-ANFIS could be applied to the virtual fit evaluation of pants.

Oscillation Damping

This paper proposes the design of auxiliary-coordinated controller for static VAR compensator (SVC) and thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) devices by adaptive fuzzy optimized technique for oscillation damping in multimachine power systems. The performance of the coordinated control of SVC and TCSC devices based on feedforward adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (F-ANFIS) is compared with that of the adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) structure based on recurrent adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (R-ANFIS) network architecture. The objective of the coordinated controller design is to tune the parameters of SVC and TCSC fuzzy lead lag compensator simultaneously to minimize the deviation of rotor angle and rotor speed of the generators. The performance of the system is enhanced by optimally tuning the membership functions of fuzzy lead lag controller parameter of the flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) by R-ANFIS controller. The training data for F-ANFIS and R-ANFIS are generated by conventional linear control technique under various operating conditions. The offline trained controller tunes the parameter of lead lag controller in online. The oscillation damping ability of the system is analyzed for three-machine test system by calculating the standard deviation and cost function. The superior performance of R-ANFIS controller is compared with various particle swarm optimization-based feedforward ANFIS controllers available in literature.
