Abstract

Operational modes and topological changes affect power flow in the power systems. As a result, a broad spectrum of protection issues may happen in the power system. So, both the operational and topological changes should be detected fast to prevent blackouts. On the other hand, the existing detection schemes are complex in analyzing and implementation. Therefore, there is a need for an online scheme to identify the network's topology and operation mode simultaneously without complex computations and additional communication infrastructures. To this end, a comprehensive scheme is proposed in which the changes are detected by analyzing the power flow obtained from the network. For this purpose, line outage contingencies and operation modes are defined in rules to be used in a fuzzy inference system (FIS) as a decision-making tool. The proposed scheme can be implemented on existing lines as a communication infrastructure and determines the network’s status in an online manner. Also, in comparison to the existing schemes, the proposed scheme reduces the complexity and the computational burden. The proposed scheme is implemented on IEEE 8-bus system and the results proved its efficiency.

Abstract

Since in most robot applications the desired paths are determined in task space or Cartesian space, it is important to control the robot arm in task space. In this paper a fuzzy controller with modifiable scaling factors is proposed to control the robot end-effector in task space. The controller is a fuzzy system with a mechanism to change the scaling factors when the error is bounded under a predetermined value. The controller is designed in joint space and is developed to work space by using inverse Jacobian strategy. The simulations results on Puma 560 robot manipulator illustrate the high performance of presented control method.

Abstract

A In this paper, an adaptive direct fuzzy control system is presented to control the robot manipulator in task space. It is assumed that robot system has unknown dynamic and uncertain kinematic. The control system and adaption mechanism are firstly designed for joint space tracking. Then by using inverse Jacobian strategy, it is generalized for task space. After that, to overcome the problem of Jacobian matrix uncertainty, an improved adaptive control system is designed. All the design steps are illustrated by simulations.

Abstract

Smart technologies enable the significant participation of consumers in demand-side management programs. In this paper, the management of electrical energy consumption for a set of residential houses in a microgrid by a load aggregator for a 24-h planning horizon is studied. In this study, consumption management programs are implemented on controllable equipment by sending binary codes by the load aggregator via the internet of things (IoT) infrastructure to residential sockets. To increase the level of customer convenience and provide more flexibility for consumers to participate in demand response programs, a parameter called the value of lost load (VOLL) has been introduced. According to the results, in addition to no need to use the energy management system for each residential house, only by moving shiftable loads to off-peak hours, 18.34% of energy consumption costs are saved daily. Also, from the load aggregator’s viewpoint for every 10% change in status from normal to the scheduled priority, there is a reduction of about 3.4% in the consumer’s peak-load cost. If solar arrays and storage resources are used, more than 18% of the total consumption cost can be saved.
