Vehicle suspension system plays a crucial role in ensuring ride comfort, stability and safety of vehicle and passengers. Damping, a critical component of suspension system, attenuates vehicle vibrations and impacts onto the vehicle structure and passengers, thereby enhancing the overall vehicle performance, namely ride comfort and road holding. Traditionally, linear damping model has been employed, however the dynamic nature of real-world driving conditions often requires a more detailed understanding of damping behaviour, particularly in non-linear regime. This paper focuses on the determination and characterization of the optimum non-linear damping profile in vehicle suspension considering vehicle ride performance criteria using a 2 degree-of-freedom quarter vehicle model and then comparing them between linear and non-linear damping regimes. A comprehensive computational mathematical model is developed in MATLAB® environment to simulate the complex interactions between the vehicle, suspension components and road input. Multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization technique is then implemented to determine the optimum non-linear damping in the form of Pareto front using MATLAB® Global optimization Toolbox by minimizing the two conflicting objectives which are vehicle body acceleration and dynamic tire load, which represents the ride comfort and road holding ability. Through computational simulation studies, the effects of non-linear damping on ride comfort and road holding ability can be evaluated and compared with linear damping model. In non-linear damping, the damping force does not increase linearly with the velocity of the suspension movement as in linear damping. Instead, the damping force changes at different rates depending on the velocity or displacement change. However, its non-linear profile remains unknown and need to be determined. Hence, the characteristic of non-linear damping is then determined through curve-fitting method, selecting a mathematica

Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 emphasizes renewable energy to drive sustainable development, particularly leveraging solar power due to abundant sunshine. However, integrating solar photovoltaic (PV) systems into existing grids presents multifaceted challenges. Voltage regulation, power quality issues, and reverse power flow disruption due to solar intermittency demand effective management strategies. Challenges, including voltage fluctuations, power quality issues, reverse power flow disruptions, and solutions like energy storage, advanced inverter control, demand response, and grid modernization, are explored to mitigate these challenges. A literature review and methodologies are presented, including PV generator modeling and power flow calculations. The proposed methodology is validated through case studies and a simulation based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 30-Bus system, showcasing differences in voltage and angle outputs across nodes with integrated PV generators.

An increasing renewable energy sources (RES) penetration in the recent years has also increased the need for additional flexibility sources and technologies that increase the RES utilization. In addition to battery energy storage, electrolyzers, a technology that produces hydrogen without emitting CO2, are also receiving an increasing attention. This paper proposes a bilevel profit maximization model for a large battery-electrolyzer facility operation in the day-ahead electricity market. The upper level maximizes the overall profit of the facility, while the lower level simulates the market clearing by maximizing the social welfare. The proposed model is tested on the IEEE RTS-24 testsystem expanded with wind farms to replicate a modern power system. The presented case study shows how different levels of installed power capacity affect the obtained profit and discusses the battery and electrolyzer utilization.

Protection and control systems represent an essential part of distribution networks, ensuring the physical integrity of components and improving system reliability. Protection devices isolate a portion of the network affected by a fault, while control devices reduce the number of de-energized loads by transferring loads to neighboring feeders. The integration of distributed generation has the potential to improve the continuity of energy services through islanding operation during outage conditions. In this context, this paper presents a multi-objective optimization approach for the size and allocation of protection and control devices in distribution networks with microgrids supplied by renewable energy sources. Reclosers, fuses, remote-controlled switches, and directional relays are considered in the formulation. The demand and generation uncertainties define the islanding operation and the load transfer possibilities. A genetic algorithm is presented to solve the allocation problem. The compromise programming is performed to choose the best solution from the Pareto front. Results show interesting setups for the protection system and viability of islanding operation.

As an efficient cooling system, the vapor cycle refrigeration system has the advantages of high performance coefficient, small compensation loss, no engine bleed and so on. In recent years, the vapor cycle refrigeration system has made great progress in application, and the disadvantages such as poor system reliability and refrigerant leakage have been solved. Therefore, the application of the vapor cycle refrigeration system in modern helicopters is gradually increasing. Based on the multi-objective optimization genetic algorithm, the steady-state optimization of the refrigeration system configuration is carried out with the goal of low energy consumption and lightweight structure, and the refrigeration system configuration in multi complex environment is improved. The recommended system configuration is given and its applicability is verified. This study has important reference value for the design of the liquid cooled vapor cycle refrigeration system of helicopter.
