Transmission congestion management is a vital task in electricity markets. Series FACTS devices can be used as effective tools to relieve congestion mostly employing Optimal Power Flow based methods, in which total cost as the objective function is minimized. However, power system stability may...

Congestion in a power system is turned up due to operating limits. To relieve congestion in a deregulated power market, the system operator pays to market participants considering their bids to alter their active powers. After relieving congestion, the network may be operated with a reduced...

Congestion management is a vital part of power system operations in recent deregulated electricity markets. However, after relieving congestion, power systems may be operated with a reduced voltage or transient stability margin because of hitting security limits or increasing the contribution of...

In a competitive electricity market, where market parties try to maximize their profits, it is necessary to keep an acceptable level of power system security to retain the continuity of electricity services to customers at a reasonable cost. Congestion in a power system is turned up due to...

Distributed Generations (DGs) can be an efficient solution to today’s power system environmental and economical challenges. Installing DGs influences power system stability and losses. In this paper, a method is presented for locating and sizing of DGs to enhance voltage stability and to...

Congestion management is one of critical tasks in electric power markets. Although congestion management using a centralized optimal power flow may give an efficient solution, it lacks enough transparency in a competitive power market for its participants about congestion related costs. On the...

To detect and alleviate harmonic resonance in a power system have been a delicate issue. In this paper, the effect of load modeling on resonance behavior of power systems employing eigenvalue sensitivity analysis is investigated. The most influencing parameters to mitigate resonance modes are...

Purpose: This paper aims to propose an innovative adaptive control method for lower-limb rehabilitation robots. Design/methodology/approach: Despite carrying out various studies on the subject of rehabilitation robots, the flexibility and stability of the closed-loop control system is still a...

In this paper, a multi-objective framework is proposed for simultaneous optimal network reconfiguration and DG (distributed generation) power allocation. The proposed method encompasses objective functions of power losses, voltage stability, DG cost, and greenhouse gas emissions and it is...
