This paper demonstrated an efficient approach for designing a static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) based supplementary controllers for damping low frequency oscillations. The SSSC is mainly GTO based which can control different parameters of power system. A supplementary damping controller for a SSSC is designed for power system dynamic performance enhancement. The lead-lag structure of damping controller is used for the damping of power system oscillation. The proposed controllers design problem is formulated as an optimization problem. The gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is employed to optimize the damping controller parameters. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive SSSC based supplementary damping controller, computer simulations are performed on a power system considering a single machine infinite bus installed with SSSC. The Simulation results are presented and these results are compared with a conventional method of tuning the damping controller parameters. This will analyze the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed design approach.

Recommendation Systems have found extensive use in today's web environment as they improve the overall user experience by providing users with personalized suggestions. Along with the traditional techniques like Collaborative and Content-based filtering, researchers have explored computational intelligence techniques to improve the performance of recommendation systems. In this paper, a similar approach has been taken in the form of applying a heuristic based technique on recommendation systems. The paper proposes a recommendation system based on a less explored nature-inspired technique called gravitational search algorithm. The performance of this system is compared with that of a system using Particle Swarm Optimisation, which is a similar optimisation technique. The results show that gravitational search algorithm excels in improving the accuracy of the recommendation model and also surpasses the model using Particle Swarm Optimization.

Micro turning is a scaled down version of conventional turning process, but operating on the micro scale of machining parameters to produce micro components. This paper deals with CNC Micro turning of Inconel 600 alloy with titanium carbide coated tool. Two conflicting objectives, surface roughness and tool flank wear, are simultaneously optimized. Full factorial experiments were taken with several combinations of cutting speed, feed and depth of cut. In this report, a new optimization algorithm based on the law of gravitation and mass interactions, namely gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is aimed to predict the optimal parameter conditions for controlling tool flank wear and better surface finish.

gravitational search algorithm (GSA) has been invented by Newton gravitational Law to solve complex global optimization problem. Many improved GSA has been proposed by many researches to improve its performance. In this paper, a new updating mechanism has been proposed to prevent premature convergence and stagnation in evolution. The core idea of particle swarm optimization (PSO) is introduced into GSA to overcome these issues. Some nonlinear benchmark functions are chosen to verify the effectiveness of new algorithm. The numerical experimental results show that the new algorithm is robustness.

In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm for cluster analysis, which is based on gravitationalsearch and a heuristic searchalgorithm. In the proposed algorithm, called GSA-HS, the gravitational search algorithm is used to find a near optimal solution for clustering problem, and then at the next step a heuristic searchalgorithm is applied to improve the initial solution by searching around it. Four benchmark datasets are used to evaluate and to compare the performance of the presented algorithm with two other famous clustering algorithms, i.e. K-means and particle swarm optimization algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm can find high quality clusters in all the tested datasets.

This paper proposes a novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for photovoltaic (PV) power generation systems under non-uniform illumination. The proposed MPPT algorithm is composed of gravitational search algorithm (GSA) and traditional perturb and observe (P&O) method. In the initial stages of tracking, the power-voltage (P-V) curve is scanned through GSA and the best solution obtained is transferred to P&O algorithm in the later stage. The combined algorithm is shown to possess the principal advantages of the two methods resulting in improved tracking performance. Simulation and experimental studies on a prototype PV system show enhanced performance of the new method.

Many scientific and technical problems with massive computation requirements could benefit from the Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) using Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) for high speed processing. gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is a population-based metaheuristic algorithm that can be effectively implemented on GPU to reduce the execution time. In this paper we discuss possible approaches to parallelize GSA on graphics hardware using CUDA. An in-depth study of the computation efficiency of parallel algorithms and capability to effectively exploit the architecture of GPU is performed. Additionally, a comparative study of parallel and sequential GSA was carried out on a set of standard benchmark optimization functions. The results show a significant speedup that re-emphasizes the utility of CUDA based implementation for complex and computationally intensive parallel applications.

The relevance of the study of metaheuristic algorithms, including the gravitational search algorithm, is given. It is shown that recently, these algorithms are becoming increasingly popular. The optimization problem is formulated on the example of solving the inverse kinetic problem. The process under study is propane pre-reforming into methane-rich gas over Ni catalyst, which is an industrially important chemical process. The description of the algorithm and its pseudo-code are presented, after which the performance of the gravitational search algorithm is compared with other metaheuristic methods. The algorithm demonstrated its competitiveness, as a result of which it was applied to solve a specific industrial problem. Using this algorithm, the inverse problem of chemical kinetics was solved, and the optimal values of the kinetic parameters of the reaction were found. It was proved that the model correctly describes the available experimental data.

To maintain reliable and stable operation in a power system, maintaining the value of frequency variation within a desired limit is important. In this paper, a state feedback controller is designed for a load frequency control (LFC) system. This process of defining each state will help the operator to understand the cumulative behavior of different states on the system performance in presence of external disturbances. A generalized range for stability is derived depending on the physical parameters of the system. Instead of manually selecting the controller gain values from stable range, an optimization algorithm is used. In this paper, gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is used as an optimization algorithm. GSA minimizes the effect of external disturbance on system frequency and gives a set of controller values satisfying system stability criterion. A set of results is presented to show the improved closed loop performance of the system. A comparative study with the previous work of the authors and with a few existing works is also presented to highlight the advantages of the proposed method.
