Landing on distant planets is always a challenging task due to the distance and hostile environments found. In the design of autonomous hazard avoidance systems we find the particularly relevant task of landing site selection, that has to operate in real-time as the lander approaches the planet's surface. Seeking to improve the computational complexity of previous approaches to this problem, we propose...
A novel scheme for boiler combustion control system is proposed, where the firing rate demand is represented by furnace temperature distribution (FTD). In this scheme, the firing rate is defined to be FTD which characterizes the status of combustion directly. A real-time FTD shape control system is formulated and applied to boiler combustion control. FTD is fed back to combustion controller and adjusted...
This paper presents a multi-population binary clustered particle swarm optimization (BCPSO) algorithm to solve short term thermal generation scheduling problem. The potential solution schedules are distributed among several clusters based on their corresponding fitness values. Each cluster contains a cluster best schedule. Each solution of a particular population then flies through to its cluster...
