This letter presents an unambiguous distance-based mixed-integer quadratic programming (UDB-MIQP) model to solve economic dispatch problems with disjoint operating zones. By considering the distances among the prohibited ...

The Nonsmooth and Discontinuous Optimal Power Flow (ND-OPF) is a large-scale, nonsmooth, discontinuous, nonconvex and multi-modal problem. In this problem, discontinuity is related to the representation of Prohibited ...

This paper proposes a new approach and coding scheme for solving economic dispatch problems (ED) in power systems through an effortless hybrid method (EHM). This novel coding scheme can effectively prevent futile searching ...

This paper proposes a solver-friendly model for disjoint, non-smooth, and nonconvex optimal power flow (OPF) problems. The conventional OPF problem is considered as a nonconvex and highly nonlinear problem for which finding ...
