Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) problems are nonlinear constrained problems which occupy an important role in the economic operation of power system. Recently, as an alternative to the conventional mathematical approaches, evolutionary algorithms have been given much attention by researchers due to their ability to find good solutions in ELD problems. In this paper, a biogeography based-optimization approach is validated. Biogeography is the study of the geographical distribution of biological organisms. Furthermore, a new approach of the biogeography based-optimization methodology combined with predator-prey approach were proposed and validated for two test systems consisting of 15 and 20 generation units (thermal generators), respectively. Simulation results are compared with those of other studies reported in the literature.

With the advancement of technology, systems in many different areas of application have become more complex, and obtaining reliable mathematical models is a task that is increasingly becoming more difficult as well. To overcome these issues, new methodologies have emerged, such as the one known as Data-Driven-Control (DDC), which uses the input and output data of the system to design a controller, and Behavior-Based-Control (BBC), which provides the controller based on the desired behavior of a system. In this work, these two methodologies were applied to obtain the transfer function of a Single-Input Single-Output mobile robotic platform that moves parallel to a wall. A Proportional Integral Derivative controller was used to control the left wheel, while the right wheel was set to a constant speed, allowing the mobile robot to maintain a constant distance from the wall. The controller was tuned utilizing root locus methodology with an overshot of 16.7%, settling time of 6.45 seconds, and a static error of 2.1%. Additionally, disturbances were added to test the robustness of the mobile robot model and the PID controller.

Stroke is the second cause of death and the third cause of disability in the world. Stroke is a disease caused by a clot in the artery that supplies blood to the brain (ischemia). Rehabilitation is a solution to restore the function of parts of the body that have been disturbed by a stroke. Therefore, exoskeleton robots for stroke therapy are one solution to provide good rehabilitation. The exoskeleton robot supports healthy human hand movements and considers the safety and comfort factors during rehabilitation. The exoskeleton in this research uses a cable and sheath transmission mechanism with a locally situated motor as a design mechanism that guarantees safety and comfort. The design strength can be determined using ANSYS static structural assistance software so that the maximum stress in links 1, 2, and 3 is known within safe limits with anthropometric loading. Apart from that, the static structural simulation results show that link 1 can withstand a maximum load of 20 N or more in the X-axis loading, a load of 15 N in the Y-axis loading, and a load of 15 N in the Y-axis loading, and a load of 10 N in the Z-axis loading. Link 2 can withstand a maximum load of 10 N in the X-axis load and 20 N or more in the Y-axis load. Meanwhile, link 3 can withstand a maximum load of 20 N in the X-axis load and below 10 N in the Y-axis load.
