Optimal power flow (OPF) is known as one of the most important planning and scheduling tools in electrical power systems. The OPF problem is a non-convex, NP-hard optimization problem, therefore, the applications of metaheuristic algorithms in the OPF problem have been gained more attentions in recent years. This article investigates successful application of recently developed optimizer, so called,...
Online shopping has become an essential part of our life, which provides a suitable, cheap, and quick way for customers to enjoy a wide variety of products. However, due to the large number of online stores, a customer usually faces difficulties to review all available offers manually in order to find a favorite item. The Internet shopping optimization problem (ISOP) is a multiple-item multiple-shop...
Differential equations play a noticeable role in engineering, physics, economics, and other disciplines. In this paper, a general approach is suggested to solve a variety of linear and nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). With the aid of certain fundamental concepts of mathematics, Fourier series expansion and metaheuristic optimization methods, ODEs can be represented as an optimization...
Due to possessing unique structure, sandwich panels have special characteristics which the most important is having high strength to weight ratio. Sandwich panels having diverse prismatic cores have been investigated and comparisons have been carried out for finding the best design. For this reason, the importance of optimization techniques particularly metaheuristics is understood. Water cycle algorithm...
