Joint NetWork Reconfiguration and Capacitor Placement by Bactrial Foraging Algorithm

Power system engineers are forced to place more emphasis on reducing losses at the distribution level. From an economic perspective, Joint network reconfiguration and capacitor placement is one of the best ways to save energy. Application of heuristic technique is unavoidable, because of expansion o...
