Scientific scale forecasting of multi-type electric vehicles (EVs) is critical to accurately analyze the planning and operation of battery-swapping stations (BSSs) and charging stations (CSs). This paper predicts the proportions of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and battery-swapping electric vehicles (BSEVs) in the total EV fleet in multi-scenarios via a system dynamics (SD) method. Relying on the predicted evolution scale of the BSEVs and the service demand of BSSs calculated by the service radius (SR) method, an improved differentialevolutional algorithm combing with Monte Carlo searching (IDEA-MCS) method is proposed to obtain the optimal location of BSSs in a certain region in Beijing, which achieves an economic optimum of BSSs under the battery-swapping mode (BSM) via centralized charging and unified distribution (CCAUD). The analytical results show that the proportion of the BSEVs in different scenarios is the major driver that impacts the location of BSSs. The distribution of BSSs' BS demand in the optimistic scenario is more inhomogeneous than that in the other scenarios. In addition, a cross-comparison of optimal profits in different scenarios is conducted to verify the optimality of BSS locations for a given scenario. Finally, the proposed IDEA-MCS method is compared with the DEA method and IDEA method to verify its optimality.

In this paper, an improved differential evolution algorithm, named the Taguchi-sliding-based differential evolution algorithm (TSBDEA), is proposed to solve the problem of parameter identification for Chen, Lu and Rossler chaotic systems. The TSBDEA, a powerful global numerical optimization method, combines the differential evolution algorithm (DEA) with the Taguchi-sliding-level method (TSLM). The TSLM is used as the crossover operation of the DEA. Then, the systematic reasoning ability of the TSLM is provided to select the better offspring to achieve the crossover, and consequently enhance the DEA. Therefore, the TSBDEA can be more robust, statistically sound, and quickly convergent. Three illustrative examples of parameter identification for Chen, Lu and Rossler chaotic systems are given to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed TSBDEA, and the computational experimental results show that the proposed TSBDEA not only can find optimal or close-to-optimal solutions but also can obtain both better and more robust results than the DEA.

The present paper deals with the parameter identification of one diode model equivalent circuit of solar cell modules from real data acquired in different temperature conditions. We termed this procedure as an optimization problem and solved it through the FSDE (Free Search differentialevolution) algorithm as well as a novel IFSDE (Improved FSDE) approach. The IFSDE is compared with other well-known metaheuristics, namely genetic algorithms, harmony search and particle swarm optimization, showing overall better results for the proposed IFSDE approach. In particular, the IFSDE is better in escaping local optima and obtained better results. Identified results are compared with acquired data, what shows the validity of the proposed algorithm.

An improved differential evolution algorithm (IDEA) is proposed to solve nonlinear programming and engineering design problems. The proposed IDEA combines the Taguchi method with sliding levels and a differential evolution algorithm (DEA). The DEA has a powerful global exploration capability on macrospace and uses fewer control parameters. The systematic reasoning ability of the orthogonal array with sliding level and response table is used to exploit the better individuals on microspace to be potential offspring. Therefore, the proposed IDEA is well enhanced and balanced on exploration and exploitation. In this study, the sensitivity of evolutionary parameters for the performance of the IDEA is explored, and the IDEA shows its effectiveness and robustness compared with both the DEA and the real-coded genetic algorithm. The engineering design problems usually encounter a large number of design variables, a mix type of both discrete and continuous design variables, and many design constraints. The proposed IDEA is used to solve these engineering design optimization problems, and demonstrates its capability, feasibility, and robustness. From the computational experiments, the introduced IDEA can obtain better results and more prominent performance than the methods presented in the literatures. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.

In this paper, we propose a new differentialevolution (DE) algorithm for joint replenishment of inventory using both direct grouping and indirect grouping which allows for the interdependence of minor ordering costs. Since solutions to the joint replenishment problem (JRP) can be represented by integer decision variables, this makes the JRP a good candidate for the DE algorithm. The results of testing randomly generated problems in contrastive numerical examples and two extended experiments show that the DE algorithm provides close to optimal results for some problems than the evolutionary algorithm (EA), which has been proved to be an efficient algorithm. Moreover, the DE algorithm is faster than the EA for most problems. We also conducted a case study and application results suggest that the proposed model is successful in decreasing total costs of maintenance materials inventories significantly in two power companies.

This paper focuses on the nonlinear system modeling based on using a modified Hammerstein system model. The proposed Hammerstein structure is composed of a bilinear neural network (BNN) and a recursive digital system in the cascaded form. The former is taken to be the nonlinear function part of the Hammerstein model, and the latter is used as the linear dynamic subsystem. The BNN is then constructed by the bilinear digital system and the recurrent neural network, which already possesses a satisfactory modeling capacity. To update all of adjustable parameters within the proposed Hammerstein model, a popular and powerful evolutionary computation called the differentialevolution (DE) is utilized so that the model output can be closely to the actual nonlinear system output. Finally, a simulated nonlinear chemical process system, continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR), is illustrated with the modeling phase and testing phase. Some experiment results as compared with another method from the subject literature are provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method and its good modeling.

Integer wavelet transform (IWT) is an alternative to fast Fourier transform (FFT) in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. It serves implementation flexibility and performance improvement by diminishing high side lobes, sensitivity to time and frequency synchronization. However, high PAPR of the transmitted signals is also a significant problem for IWT as in FFT based OFDM. One of the methods used for reducing the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is partial transmit sequences (PTS) and this method requires an exhaustive search to obtain optimum reduction. This study examines the PAPR reduction potential of differential evolution algorithm based PTS scheme in lifting based wavelet packet modulation (LBWPM) system. The simulation results indicate that remarkable PAPR reduction performance with a low computational load for LBWPM system can be achieved using the proposed differentialevolution based PTS scheme.

Hybridizing of the optimization algorithms provides a scope to improve the searching abilities of the resulting method. The purpose of this paper is to develop a novel hybrid optimization algorithm entitled hybrid robust differentialevolution (HRDE) by adding positive properties of the Taguchi's method to the differential evolution algorithm for minimizing the production cost associated with multi-pass turning problems. The proposed optimization approach is applied to two case studies for multi-pass turning operations to illustrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm in machining operations. The results reveal that the proposed hybrid algorithm is more effective than particle swarm optimization algorithm, immune algorithm, hybrid harmony search algorithm, hybrid genetic algorithm, scatter search algorithm, genetic algorithm and integration of simulated annealing and Hooke-Jeevespatter search.

In multi-objective optimization problems, the objective space of fitness functions has a close relationship with the solution space. Extracting the optimal direction and optimal parameter information are very useful for the optimization process. This paper proposes multi-objective differential evolution algorithm with a clustering based objective space division and parameter adaptation (MODECD). L. metric matrix based optimal strategy is used to split the objective space into sub-spaces and to extract the optimal directions. A fitness value based parameter adaptation and mutation strategy are used to extract the optimal strategy information. The results with 20 benchmark tests show the competitiveness of the MODECD algorithm in both convergence speed and diversity of solution approximating the Pareto front. In addition, MODECD is used to optimize the fermentation process of sodium gluconate as an example of its superior performance in solving real-world problems.

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are seen to have some negative impacts on microgrid performance, such as diminishing power quality and efficiency and increasing power losses, voltage variations and even customer energy prices. This paper proposes a new method for evaluating the effect of integrating a large number of EVs on a power system and their impact on the network voltage profile via injecting reactive power into highly-loaded buses. A multi-objective optimization problem is developed to obtain the optimal siting and sizing of charging stations and renewable energy sources (RES). The optimization problem focuses on reducing power losses, improving voltage stability of the system and reducing charging costs of EVs. In order to increase the network load factor some coefficients are introduced. Such coefficients, which depend on wind speed, solar irradiance and hourly peak demand ratio in the load characteristic of day-ahead, help aggregators to charge their EVs in off-peak hours. differentialevolution (DE) algorithm is used for solving the optimization problem. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated for 69-bus and 94-bus microgrids. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
