A Novel Constraint Handling Approach for the Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch Problem

This paper presents an alternative constraint handling approach within a specialized genetic algorithm (SGA) for the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem. The ORPD is formulated as a nonlinear single-objective optimization problem aiming at minimizing power losses while keeping network con...
