Summary: In this paper, a robust economic model predictive control (EMPC) strategy is developed to minimize damage to the turbine while maximizing electric power output in the offshore wind power generation system. A linear model is used to approximate the nonlinear behavior of the system, and a linear feedback controller is designed to restrict the deviation between the nominal linear system and the actual nonlinear system. Plant simulations and NREL FAST code testing demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller throughout the operating region.

Summary: This paper addresses the issue of frequency and stability of conventional generating units being affected due to the substitution of renewable energy sources. To improve frequency regulation, a supplementary control method called washout filter is introduced in the primary frequency control of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind turbine. The Mayfly Algorithm is used to optimize the parameters of the washout filter for achieving the best performance. The results show significant improvement in system frequency response under different load perturbations compared to the traditional method.

Summary: The aim of this study is to propose an effective load frequency control scheme by integrating tidal turbines into a standalone microgrid (mu G) system. The use of variable tidal turbines in the de-loaded region is considered as a feasible solution for frequency regulation issues in standalone mu G systems with lower inertia and lacking primary frequency control. A cascade fractional order fuzzy PID-integral double derivative (CFOFPID-IDD) controller is designed and tuned using the Jaya algorithm to efficiently utilize tidal turbines. The performance of the proposed strategy is analyzed under various load conditions and physical constraints, and the simulation results validate its effectiveness and adequacy.

Summary: The study found that applying 100% recommended fertilizer doses, farmyard manure, and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) to peanuts in the peanut-wheat cropping system improved growth, yield, and nutrient uptake. However, applying 75% recommended fertilizer doses, farmyard manure, and PGPR to peanuts and 100% recommended fertilizer doses to wheat was the most effective approach. This sustainable system approach increased system productivity, profitability, and net energy gain, making it beneficial for agronomists and farmers.

Summary: The increasing demand for electrical power and challenges of traditional power generation lead to the integration of distributed generators (DGs) into radial distribution networks. In this study, the optimal placement of DGs using genetic algorithm (GA) is determined based on a fixed penetration level (PL). By estimating the state of charge (SoC) value for each hour, batteries are placed in optimal locations with fixed capacity to reduce power loss and improve the network's voltage profile. The impact of incorporating electric vehicles (EVs) on the network's power losses is also investigated.

Summary: To construct the best local codebook for image compression, techniques such as Gaussian Dissemination Function (GDF) are commonly used in the searching process. However, existing algorithms like Firefly (FA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) face challenges in terms of brightness discrimination and merging uncertainty respectively. In this study, a novel procedure called Cuckoo Search-Kekre Fast Codebook Generation (CS-KFCG) is proposed, which enhances the codebook generation process by implementing a Flight Dissemination Function (FDF). CS-KFGC outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of speed, mutation expectations, and achieved a high Peak Signal Noise Ratio (PSNR) with high duration and better acceptability rate.
