Dengue fever is an infectious disease caused by a virus of the Flaviridae family and transmitted to the person by a mosquito of the genus Aedes aegypti. This disease has been a global public health problem because a single ...

This paper presents a mixed integer nonlinear programming multiobjective model for short-term planning of distribution networks that considers in an integrated manner the following planning activities: allocation of capacitor ...

This study presents a multiobjective optimization algorithm that is termed memetic algorithm with compromise search (MACS). This algorithm, proposed by the authors, combines genetic evolution with local search, in the same ...

In this paper, we present an algorithm for cluster analysis that integrates aspects from cluster ensemble and multi-objective clustering. The algorithm is based on a Pareto-based multi-objective genetic algorithm, with a ...

Planning means, in the realm of production activities, to design, coordinate, manage and control all the operations involved in the production system. Many MOPs (Multi-Objective Optimization Problems) are generated in ...

This paper proposes a multi-objective approach to a distribution network planning process that deals with the challenges derived from the integration of Distributed Generation (DG). The proposal consists of a multi-objective ...

The high active and reactive power level demanded by the distribution systems, the growth of consuming centers, and the long lines of the distribution systems result in voltage variations in the busses compromising the ...
