Multi‐Strategy Synergy‐Based Differential Evolution for Large Wind Farm Layout Optimization
ABSTRACT Exploring clean energy alternatives to fossil fuels has become a major research focus worldwide. Wind energy is regarded as one of the most promising renewable energy sources due to its clean and sustainable nature. However, wake interactions among turbines significantly reduce power conversion efficiency, making wind farm layout optimization (

ABSTRACT Load‐frequency control (LFC) comprises a primary process in interconnected electrical power systems, playing a critical role in maintaining the stability and reliability of the electrical grid. It is of paramount importance that the designed controller functions in an optimal manner, particularly with regard to the compression of area ...

Chaotic maps are sources of randomness formed by a set of rules and chaotic variables. They have been incorporated into metaheuristics because they improve the balance of exploration and exploitation, and with this, they allow one to obtain better ...

Beyond metaphors: rethinking metaphors in metaheuristics algorithm design
Although research in metaheuristics has become increasingly automated, considerable effort is still devoted to identifying new sources of inspiration for the manual design of so-called metaphor-based algorithms.

A fast metaheuristic approach for the planar multiple obnoxious facility location problem
Abstract The multiple obnoxious facility location problem is one of the most studied problems in the literature of the obnoxious facility location problems family. In this work, we propose an alternative algorithmic approach for this problem, based on an efficient metaheuristic procedure over a discretization of the plane based on Voronoi diagrams ...

Abstract In this paper, we address the problem of routing a fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) to serve a set of customers, geographically distributed, within their time windows. We assume that EVs may also be recharged en route, and the amount of energy recharged at a recharging station (RS) is a decision variable itself, that is, partial recharges are ...

Integrated location–inventory planning for slow‐moving demands with waiting time limitations
Abstract This paper studies a stochastic facility location problem integrated with inventory and transportation decisions (SFLPIT) for supply chains with slow‐moving stock‐keeping units (SKUs). Local stores often avoid maintaining such SKUs, resulting in customer demand being fulfilled directly by a central distribution center (DC), where the ...

A matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints
Abstract We propose a matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints, where we seek to generate a set of routes with minimum total cost, in which the nodes visited in more than one route (consistent nodes) must occupy the same relative position in all routes.
