The proposed hybrid microgrids consist of solar chimney (SC), combined solar gas turbine (CSGT), bio‐diesel operated generator (BDOG), DC link, energy storage units such as battery energy storage unit (BESU), super‐magnetic energy storage unit (SMESU), and redox flow battery (RFB) based. Integration of generating units such as SC, CSGT, BDOG, SMESU, RFB, and DC link in three area hybrid microgrid is also a unique work. A newly developed chaotic butterfly optimization algorithm (CBOA) is applied so as to obtain the optimized standards of the cascaded PI‐TID controller employed with dispatchable generating units. Comparative analysis of different algorithms and controllers is achieved to establish the dominance of the anticipated control strategy. The impact of each component on the system is examined while taking into account various real‐time scenarios. Finally, the efficacy of cascaded PI‐TID controller tuned using CBOA is established by sensitivity analysis with significant changes in source and load circumstances.","PeriodicalId":105945,"journal":{"name":"Optimal Control Applications and Methods","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123493475","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}

In each simplex, only the concave part of BMI constraints is approximated by piecewise affine matrix (PAM), which eventually leads to a convex sub‐problem. After that, the feasible solution can be easily obtained in each simplex through the linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization. Although the proposed MBPA exploits PAM approximation, it relaxes several restrictive conditions used in other methods, so, it can be used as an effective approach for solving BMI problems. Various numerical examples on systems from COMPleib library to design static output feedback controller are provided to validate the proposed MBPA. Simulation results reveal the satisfactory performance of MBPA in several examined problems and provide acceptable performance compared to other existing BMI solution algorithms. Comparing the percentage of superiority of MBPA with some existing prominent BMI algorithms in several control problems including spectral abscissa optimization problems, H∞$$ {H}_{infty } $$ and H2$$ {H}_2 $$ optimization problems for the closed‐loop systems of COMPleib show that the proposed algorithm is more successful than the previous ones.","PeriodicalId":105945,"journal":{"name":"Optimal Control Applications and Methods","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133446670","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}

Therefore, it is difficult to build practical systems by accurate models. Under the lack of accurate process models, using system data to improve system performance and learn optimal decisions becomes very important. Through the recent years, data-based learning control theories and technologies have widely been investigated, including adaptive dynamic programming, reinforcement learning, iterative learning control, and so on. Data-based methods require the system data instead of the accurate knowledge of system dynamics that can be considered as model-free learning control methods. The data-based methods are effective solutions for the optimal control of nonlinear systems, which motivate this special issue. This special issue aims to collect and present original research dealing with data-based learning and their applications for optimization and control problems.
