A Review on Multi-Area Load Frequency Control
Abstract: The operation of interconnected deregulated power system is totally based upon the balance between power generation and the load variation including system losses. Two variables of interest which are affected due to the sudden variation in load perturbation are system frequency and tie-line power. The approach of most of the researchers towards solving this problem has been to obtain the best method of controlling the governor action so that the …

Mocking up of Thermal Power Plant for Better understanding of Load Frequency Control
Abstract: The integrated power system consists of control areas linked by tie lines to each other. The loads of the generator, station, and device are determined by the summation of different outputs of the thermal converter. Frequency is determined by the instrument form of the frequency bridge. Because this data is fed into a master controller, it can sense the need for more or less generation and send impulses to the …

Stabilization of Foundation Base Soil for Enhanced Bearing Capacity and Lateral Load Resistance
Abstract: Abstract The foundation of any structure plays a pivotal role in ensuring its stability and durability. The soil beneath the foundation must possess sufficient bearing capacity to support the structure's load, while also resisting the uplift pressure exerted by groundwater, especially in saturated conditions. Inadequate bearing capacity can lead to settlement or even structural failure. Additionally, the surrounding soil must be stabilized to prevent lateral movement and ensure the foundation's …

A Comparative Study of the Wind Load Effect on High-Rise Buildings
Abstract: Tall buildings are going up all over the world, so it increases the importance of design for wind-inducedbuilding motion. Tall structures that comply with lateral drift requirements specified in building codescan still experience significant swaying under strong wind conditions. Severe wind-related disasters inIndia and the United States have highlighted the fact that many existing buildings are not entirely wind-resistant. This underscores the need to reevaluate and enhance the computational techniques …

Economic Load Dispatch: A Review
Abstract: In this paper, the problems related to economic load dispatch (ELD) have been discussed. The ELD problem can be conceived as an optimization problem of minimizing the total fuel cost of all generating units while satisfying the demand and losses. The ELD problems have non-smooth objective function with equality and inequality constraints. The economic dispatch problem means the real and reactive power of the generator varies within the certain limits …

Faults in On-Load Tap Changer of a Transformer: An Innovative Approach to Mechanical Fault Diagnosis
Abstract: On-load tap changer (OLTC) is very important for maintaining or regulating output voltage, but it has moving contact & complex switching mechanisms which contributes to the failure of on-load tap changer. Faults in OLTC such as Coking Contact wear and damaged transition resistors significantly reduce reliability of transformers which may lead to catastrophic failures of transformers. There are some traditional approaches for diagnostics of OLTC, such as Static Resistance Measurements, …

Dynamics Behaviour of Clamped-Clamped Non-Uniform Elastic Beam on Two Parameters Foundation Under Concentrated Moving Load
Abstract: This paper presents a computational study on the dynamic response of a clamped–clamped non-uniform elastic beam supported by a two-parameter foundation and subjected to a concentrated moving load. The analysis incorporates the inertial contribution of the moving load. Unlike uniform models, both the mass per unit length and the moment of inertia of the beam are assumed to vary along the span LLL. The governing equations are solved using the …
