This paper provides an optimized cable path planning solution for a tree-topology network in an irregular 2D manifold in a 3D Euclidean space, with an application to the planning of submarine cable networks. Our solution method is based on total cost minimization, where the individual cable costs are assumed to be linear to the length of the corresponding submarine cables subject to latency constraints between pairs of nodes. These latency constraints limit the cable length and number of hops between any pair of nodes. Our method combines the Fast Marching Method (FMM) and a new Integer Linear Programming (ILP) formulation for Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) where there are constraints between pairs of nodes. We note that this problem of MST with constraints is NP-complete. Nevertheless, we demonstrate that ILP running time is adequate for the great majority of existing cable systems. For cable systems for which ILP is not able to find the optimal solution within an acceptable time, we propose an alternative heuristic algorithm based on Prims algorithm. In addition, we apply our FMM/ILP-based algorithm to a real-world cable path planning example and demonstrate that it can effectively find an MST with latency constraints between pairs of nodes.

This paper presents a spanning tree-based genetic algorithm (GA) for the reconfiguration of electrical distribution systems with the objective of minimizing active power losses. Due to low voltage levels at distribution systems, power losses are high and sensitive to system configuration. Therefore, optimal reconfiguration is an important factor in the operation of distribution systems to minimize active power losses. Smart and automated electric distribution systems are able to reconfigure as a response to changes in load levels to minimize active power losses. The proposed method searches spanning trees of potential configurations and finds the optimal spanning tree using a genetic algorithm in two steps. In the first step, all invalid combinations of branches and tie-lines (i.e., switching combinations that do not provide power to some of loads or violate the radiality and connectivity conditions) generated by initial population of GA are filtered out with the help of spanning-tree search algorithm. In the second step, power flow analyses are performed only for combinations that form spanning trees. The optimal configuration is then determined based on the amount of active power losses (optimal configuration is the one that results in minimum power losses). The proposed method is implemented on several systems including the well-known 33-node and 69-node systems. The results show that the proposed method is accurate and efficient in comparison with existing methods.

Efficiently computing the optimal control policy concerning a complicated future with stochastic disturbance has always been a challenge. The predicted stochastic future disturbance can be represented by a scenario tree, but solving the optimal contr ol problem with a scenario tree is usually computationally demanding. In this paper, we propose a data-based clustering approximation method for the scenario tree representation. Differently from the popular Markov chain approximation, the proposed method can retain information from previous steps while keeping the state space size small. Then the predictive optimal control problem can be approximately solved with reduced computational load using dynamic programming. The proposed method is evaluated in numerical examples and compared with the method which considers the disturbance as a non-stationary Markov chain. The results show that the proposed method can achieve better control performance than the Markov chain method.
This paper proposes a robust transient stability constrained optimal power flow problem that addresses renewable uncertainties by the coordination of generation re-dispatch and power flow router (PFR) tuning.PFR refers to a general type of network-si de controller that enlarges the feasible region of the OPF problem. The coordination between network-side and generator-side control in the proposed model is more general than the traditional methods which focus on generation dispatch only. An offline-online solution framework is developed to solve the problem efficiently. Under this framework the original problem is significantly simplified, so that we only need to solve a low-dimensional deterministic problem at the online stage to achieve real-time implementation with a high robustness level. The proposed method is verified on the modified New England 39-bus system. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method is efficient and shows good performance on economy and robustness.
The seminal work of Chow and Liu (1968) shows that approximation of a finite probabilistic system by Markov trees can achieve the minimum information loss with the topology of a maximum spanning tree. Our current paper generalizes the result to Marko v networks of tree width $leq k$, for every fixed $kgeq 2$. In particular, we prove that approximation of a finite probabilistic system with such Markov networks has the minimum information loss when the network topology is achieved with a maximum spanning $k$-tree. While constructing a maximum spanning $k$-tree is intractable for even $k=2$, we show that polynomial algorithms can be ensured by a sufficient condition accommodated by many meaningful applications. In particular, we prove an efficient algorithm for learning the optimal topology of higher order correlations among random variables that belong to an underlying linear structure.
Determining contingency aware dispatch decisions by solving a security-constrained optimal power flow (SCOPF) is challenging for real-world power systems, as the high problem dimensionality often leads to impractical computational requirements. This problem becomes more severe when the SCOPF has to be solved not only for a single instance, but for multiple periods, e.g. in the context of electricity market analyses. This paper proposes an algorithm that identifies the minimal set of constraints that exactly define the space of feasible nodal injections for a given network and contingency scenarios. By internalizing the technical limits of the nodal injections and enforcing a minimal worst-case impact of contingencies to line flows, computational effort can be further improved. The case study applies and analyzes the methods on the IEEE 118 and A&M 2000 bus systems, as well as the German and European transmission systems. In all tested cases the proposed algorithm identifies at least 95% of the network and security constraints as redundant, leading to significant SCOPF solve time reductions. Scalability and practical implementation are explicitly discussed. The code and input data of the case study is published supplementary to the paper under an open-source license.
