A model predictive approach to protect power systems against cascading blackouts

TL;DR: A model predictive approach is proposed to protect power grids against cascading blackouts by establishing a nonlinear convex optimization formulation to terminate the cascading outages by adjusting the injected power on buses.

A robust optimization approach for protecting power systems against cascading blackouts

TL;DR: A Markov chain model is developed in this paper to predict the cascading failure paths of power systems and an efficient numerical solver based on Dykstra’s algorithm is employed to deal with the robust optimization problem.

Effects of Particle Swarm Optimization and Genetic Algorithm Control Parameters on Overcurrent Relay Selectivity and Speed

TL;DR: The findings indicate that particle swarm optimization is more sensitive to inertia weight and swarm size while the number of iterations has minimal effect, and that 30% crossover, 2% mutation, and smaller population size yield faster convergence rate and optimise fitness function, which improves genetic algorithms performance.
