In this study, we propose a new constrained optimization method using the quasi-chaotic optimization method (Q-COM) with the exact penalty function and the sequential quadratic programming (SQP). The Q-COM, which has been proposed recently, is a global optimization method to solve unconstrained optimization problems in which the simultaneous perturbation gradient approximation is introduced into the chaotic optimization method to apply to a class of problems whose objective function values only can be computed. The SQP is well known and powerful constrained optimization method to find local optimal solution. In the proposed method, the Q-COM with the exact penalty function is used as the global search method and the SQP is used as the local search method. We confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method through applications to various types of benchmark problems that include the coil spring design problem and the benchmark problems used in the special session on constrained real parameter optimization in CEC2006.

The citrate (citric acid, CA) coated ferrofluids with great magneto-optical retardance could meet the highly magnetic responsive demand, especially in their potential biomedical applications such as hyperthermia and magnetic resonance imaging. In this study, the measured retardances are based on Taguchi method with nine tests for four parameters, including pH of suspension, molar ratio of CA to Fe3O4, CA volume, and coating temperature. Three optimization algorithms including sequential quadratic programming (SQP), genetic algorithm (GA) and integrated GA-SQP are executed to obtain high retardance. Five initial points chosen from the orthogonal test are input into the SQP, the GA is applied to the regression equation, and while executing the integrated GA-SQP algorithm, the parametric combination obtained by GA is adopted as the initial point in the SQP simulation. The global optimum retardance and the corresponding parameter values are effectively assured by the global search ability of a GA and the ability of local searching by using SQP.

In this paper a new methodology is proposed to solve the optimal Distributed Generation (DG) sizing problem. The main feature of the proposed approach is utilizing the radial power flow method to satisfy the power flow equality constraints as a substitute of the Newton method used in the conventional sequential quadratic programming (SQP). The proposed technique, Fast SQP, is tested on 69-bus and 33-bus radial systems. Simulation results indicated that the execution time of the developed technique is significantly reduced by a factor of 2/3 compared to the conventional SQP.

Integrating Distribution Generation sources (DGs) into an electric power system has an overall positive impact on the system. This impact can be enhanced via optimal DG placement and sizing. In this paper the location issue is investigated through an All Possible Combinations (APC) search approach of the distribution network. The DG rating, on the other hand, is formulated as a nonlinear optimization problem subject to highly nonlinear equality and inequality constraints. Sizing the DG optimally is performed using a conventional sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method and a Fast SQP (FSQP) method. The FSQP is an improved version of the conventional SQP method that incorporates the Fast and Flexible Radial Power Flow (FFRPF) routine, which was developed by the authors in an earlier paper, to satisfy the power flow requirements. The results of this hybrid method are compared with those obtained using the conventional SQP technique, and the comparison results favor the proposed technique. This approach is designed to handle optimal single and multiple DG sizing. A 33-bus distribution network is used to investigate the performance of the proposed approach.

This paper addresses the economic-environmental dispatch problem for thermal plants on a Multi-terminal HVDC power grid. A multi-objective optimization approach is used for modeling the compromise between fuel costs and the greenhouse gas emissions by the thermal plants. The grid topology is also considered by proposing a convex reformulation of the power balance equations through Taylor's series expansion method. To eliminate the error introduced by this linear approximation a sequential quadratic programming approach is applied by solving the multi-objective problem by a single-objective equivalent via weighting factor approach. A standard 6-node HVDC system is used to validate the proposed convex formulation. All simulations are performed in MATLAB with the quadprog optimization package.

In view of the particularity of ship's double pods propulsion mode, a mathematical model of ship motion is set up. In order to make the double pods more coordinated and promote the desired purpose of ships, the objective function and inequality constraint conditions based on the optimal energy consumption are put forward based on sequential quadratic programming. Combined with the real ship data, the simulation of the thrust optimization system is carried out in MATLAB, and the effectiveness of the control strategy is verified.

Path planning and obstacle avoidance of Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) is one of the hottest research topics in modern national defense and ocean engineering. Considering the issue of obstacle-free path planning of USV, this paper focuses on a 3-DoF USV and develops an algorithm design. We adopt Gauss pseudo-spectral method to discretize control model and make use of a hybrid algorithm to optimize which combines the advantage of genetic algorithm and sequential quadratic programming algorithm. Simulation results show that this method can quickly explore a high-precision route in an unknown environment which meets the mobility requirement of USV without setting the initial value artificially.

For systems with nonlinear dynamics, Dynamic programming for control is commonly considered in the framework of integrated plant and control system design. Despite its popularity, this control strategy can run into some computational issues as the performance is dependent on the state and input discretization. In this paper, we propose a sequential quadratic programming-based control optimization strategy for integrated system design, where both the plant and control are optimized for the case study of a continuously variable transmission. The proposed plant and control design problem will be solved using a nested strategy. Copyright (C) 2020 The Authors.
