Reactive power optimization (RPO) is an effective way to improve the power balance and reduce the risk of voltage violation in active distribution networks (ADN). However, traditional reactive power optimization methods mainly rely on stationary equipment and ignore the utilization of flexibility resources such as mobile energy storage systems (MESSs). This paper exploits the MESSs to provide localized reactive power support and proposes a day-ahead reactive power scheduling model with consideration of MESSs and conventional reactive power compensators. In the proposed model, the optimal MESS routing in the feeder can be decided and the reactive power output of the MESSs and conventional reactive power compensators can be optimally coordinated to minimize the node voltage deviations in active distribution network. By considering discrete and continuous reactive power compensators, the optimization problem can be solved effectively by the artificialbeecolony (ABC) algorithm due to its strong global searching ability. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated with the IEEE 33-node distribution test system.

A sensor scheduling approach focusing on managing the operational risk in target tracking is proposed. The scheme selects sensor actions so that the operational risks are the minimum. First, given the definition, existence of risk in sensor scheduling is analyzed. Second, the target missing risk and the sensor radiation interception risk are summed to create the sensor scheduling objective functions, including myopic sensor scheduling and non-myopic sensor scheduling. Furthermore, to obtain sensor management schemes according to the objective functions, the improved beecolonyalgorithm based on double-roulette and in combination with the particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed. Finally, simulations are carried out to illustrate the models and algorithms in the paper possess some advantages over existing ones, including being more practical, keeping nearly the same or even better tracking performance with lower risk values, and owing better sensor scheduling solutions.

In this study, an optimization problem is carried out for maximizing the out-of-plane elastic constants of woven z-pinned composites, subjected to some constraints on their in-plane elastic constants and geometric parameters. A unit-cell model is used to obtain the elastic constants as functions of geometric parameters including the pin radius and distribution density, the resin-rich zone length, the unit-cell length, the yarn thickness and width, and the yarn waviness created by z-pinning or weaving. A parametric study on the unit-cell geometry is conducted to evaluate the optimization variables and determine whether they are effective enough on the elastic properties or not. Using the key results of the parameter study, which are the equality of the yarn width and the unit-cell length as well as selecting the lowest practical yarn thickness, the constrained optimization problem is defined and solved using a modified artificial bee colony algorithm. Significant improvements in the out-of-plane constant against controlled reductions in the in-plane ones are observed. The more flexible the constraints on the in-plain constants, the better the out-of-plane constants. The optimum out-of-plane elastic modulus is greatly dependent on the pin distribution density and the ratio of the yarn width to the pin radius.

The multiple traveling salesmen problem with visiting constraints (VCMTSP) is an extension of the multiple traveling salesmen problem (MTSP). In this problem, some cities are restricted to be only accessed by certain salesmen, which is very common in real-world applications. In the literature, evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been demonstrated to effectively solve MTSP. In this paper, we aim to adapt three widely used EAs in solving MTSP, namely the genetic algorithm (GA), the ant colony optimization algorithm (ACO), and the artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC), to solve VCMTSP. Then, we conduct extensive experiments to investigate the optimization performance of the three EAs in solving VCMTSP. Experimental results on various VCMTSP instances demonstrate that by means of its strong local exploitation ability, ABC shows much better performance than the other two algorithms, especially on large-scale VCMTSP. Though GA and ACO are effective to solve small-scale VCMTSP, their effectiveness degrades drastically on large-scale instances. Particularly, it is found that local exploitation is very vital for EAs to effectively solve VCMTSP. With the above observations, it is expected that this paper could afford a basic guideline for new researchers who want to take attempts in this area.

Microgrid systems are becoming more and more popular and important to supply the power demand locally so that the operation and stability of the regional grid is improved. Additionally, the microgrid system is also required to operate optimally under various scenarios. This paper proposes a minimization for the power generation cost of the islanded microgrid system which is based a chaos artificialbeecolony (ABC) algorithm. The microgrid system is assumed with diesel generators, wind turbine generators, and fuel cell plants. The numerical results of using the chaos ABC algorithm is compared to the ABC, particle swarm optimization (PSO), and Chaos PSO algorithms. The comparison shows the effectiveness of the proposal.

In this paper, the distributed consensus tracking of unknown nonlinear chaotic delayed fractional-order multi-agent systems (FOMASs) with external disturbances is investigated, where the fractional orders and system parameters are unknown. Firstly, in order to identify the unknown parameters of the delayed nonlinear FOMASs, an efficient artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC)-based parameters estimation approach is put forward. Secondly, based on the estimated parameters, by using fractional derivative inequality and comparison principle of linear fractional equation with delay, a discontinuous distributed control protocol is proposed to make the tracking errors converge to zero asymptotically. Thirdly, to overcome the undesirable chattering phenomenon caused by the discontinuous controller, a continuous distributed control algorithm is further designed and uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) tracking errors can be obtained and reduced as small as desired. Finally, numerical simulations are given to test the effectiveness of the proposed parameters estimation scheme and the deigned control algorithms. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A risk-based sensor scheduling method is proposed and applied to target detection in this paper. This paper mainly focuses on the sensor radiation interception risk and target detection risk. Firstly, the general risk-based sensor scheduling model is established;Secondly, the target detection risk model and sensor radiation risk model are proposed respectively. It is stressed that the radiation interception model is based on Partially Observed Markov Decision Process (POMDP) due to the reason that parameters of the enemy's radiation receiver are not accessible to calculate the radiation interception risk directly;Furthermore, combined with double-roulette, the basic artificialbeecolony (ABC) is improved to get sensor scheduling schemes from the objective function;Ultimately, simulations are conducted and indicate that the models and the algorithm in the paper possess some advantages over existing ones.
