Thermal power plants have a long start-up time and cannot follow changes in load demand so they are used to cover the constant part of the load, but peaks in load demand are covered by hydro units. A new mathematical model of a hydro plant chain was developed which used only two, instead of three, variables. The optimization algorithm used Newton's method which is applied on the exact <span><math><mtext>L</mtext></math></span> penalty function which allows a nonfeasible starting point so no phase <span><math><mtext>I</mtext></math></span> simplex or projection method is needed at the beginning. The mathematical model was implemented on a PC as a computer program using the FORTRAN 77 programming language and spreadsheet software. The program was applied to a hydro-chain on the river Drava. Preliminary results show that applying optimization techniques can greatly reduce costs of operating a hydro plant chain.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100043,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Engineering Software (1978)","volume":"12 1","pages":"Pages 45-49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0141-1195(90)90041-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"53543930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The closed loop formation is considered when both end-effectors of the two arms have one point in common or hold the same object from each side. Specified motions resulting from torque generated at the joint links are also considered. The collision avoidance between the two arms in space is illustrated through the use of a minimum distance to be maintained between two different points of the two arms. The governing equations of motion are derived using Kane's equations, and the constraint equations are handled through the generation of orthogonal complement arrays using the Pseudo-Uptriangular Decomposition method (PUTD). The algorithms developed are presented in a computer automated form suitable for computer-aided-desing and dynamic simulation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100043,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Engineering Software (1978)","volume":"12 1","pages":"Pages 21-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0141-1195(90)90038-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"53543831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
