Mathematical optimization versus Metaheuristic techniques: A performance comparison for reconfiguration of distribution systems
(2021-07-01)
Reconfiguration is a complex combinatorial problem in which the topology of distribution systems is modified by the opening/closing of interconnection switches aiming techno-economic benefits (e.g., minimization of losses). ...
A mixed-integer LP model for the reconfiguration of radial electric distribution systems considering distributed generation
(2013-01-21)
The problem of reconfiguration of distribution systems considering the presence of distributed generation is modeled as a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem in this paper. The demands of the electric distribution ...
The use of possibility theory in the definition of fuzzy Pareto-optimality

Optimal Power Flow Problem Solution through a Matheuristic Approach
(2021-01-01)
The optimal power flow (OPF) problem is a widely studied subject in the literature that has been solved through classical and metaheuristic optimization techniques. Nowadays, significant advances in computational resources ...
Comparative analysis of strut-and-tie models using Smooth Evolutionary Structural Optimization
(2013-11-01)
The strut-and-tie models are widely used in certain types of structural elements in reinforced concrete and in regions with complexity of the stress state, called regions D, where the distribution of deformations in the ...
Reducing the Number of Control Actions in the Discrete Reactive Optimal Power Flow
(2020-10-01)
This paper proposes a new formulation for the Discrete Reactive Optimal Power Flow problem (DROPF) that aims at reducing the number of control actions of the problem. For such a purpose, additional constraints are introduced ...
On the solution of mathematical programming problems with equilibrium constraints
(2002-02-01)
Mathematical programming problems with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) are nonlinear programming problems where the constraints have a form that is analogous to first-order optimality conditions of constrained optimization. ...
A method to improve quantum state fidelity in circuits executed on ibm’s quantum computers
(2021-01-01)
Recently, various quantum computing and communication tasks have been implemented using IBM’s superconductivity-based quantum computers. Here, we show that the circuits used in most of those works were not optimized and ...
Generalized relative entropies in the classical limit
(Elsevier Science, 2015-03)
Our protagonists are (i) the Cressie-Read family of divergences (characterized by the parameter γ), (ii) Tsallis' generalized relative entropies (characterized by the q one), and, as a particular instance of both, (iii) ...
