Optimal selection and location of fixed-step capacitor banks in distribution networks using a discrete version of the vortex search algorithm

This paper deals with the problem of the optimal selection of capacitor banks in electrical AC distribution systems for minimizing the costs of energy losses during a year of operation through a discrete version of the vortex search algorithm (DVSA). This algorithm works with a hypersphere with a va...
