Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPLEMENTATION OF AUTONOMOUS NAVIGATION ALGORITHMS ON TWO-WHEELED GROUND MOBILE ROBOTStephen Armah, Sun Yi, Taher Abu-LebdehThis study presents an effective navigation architecture that combines ’go-to-goal’, ’avoid-obstacle’ and ’follow-wall’ controllers into a full navigation system. A MATLAB robot simulator is used to implement this navigation control algorithm. The robot in the simulator moves to a goal in the presence of convex and non-convex obstacles. Experiments are carried out using a ground mobile robot, Dr Robot X80SV, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 7 Apr 2014 · 9,431 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Voltage Stability by Optimal Location of Static Var Compensator Using Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm OptimizationR. Kalaivani, V. KamarajProblem statement: Voltage instability and voltage collapse have been considered as a major threat to present power system networks due to their stressed operation. It is very important to do the power system analysis with respect to voltage stability. Approach: Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) is an alternating current transmission system incorporating power electronic-based and other static controllers to enhance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 May 2012 · 9,443 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Eigenstructure Assignment for a Static Synchronous CompensatorAhmad N. Al-HusbanProblem statement: Power flow through an AC transmission line is influenced by three basic electrical parameters, which are line impedance, magnitudes and phase-shift angle between the sending and receiving voltages. Therefore, the change in any of the three basic parameters means a change in the power flow through the transmission line. The aims of this research paper are: increase the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,691 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArtificial Intelligence Based Three-Phase Unified Power Quality ConditionerMoleykutty GeorgePower quality is an important measure of the performance of an electrical power system. This paper discusses the topology, control strategies using artificial intelligent based controllers and the performance of a unified power quality conditioner for power quality improvement. UPQC is an integration of shunt and series compensation to limit the harmonic contamination within 5 %, the limit imposed by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,911 accessesView PDF Cite
