What is GSA??

Gravitational Search Algorithm

1.GSA is constructed based on the law of gravity and the notion of mass interactions.
E.Rashedi is the man who first applied it.

2. In GSA, we have an isolated system of masses. Using the gravitational force, every mass in
the system can see the situation of other masses. The gravitational force is therefore a way of transferring information between different masses

In GSA, agents are considered as objects and their performance is measured by their masses. All these objects attract each other by a gravity force, and this force causes a movement of all objects globally towards the objects with heavier masses. The heavy masses correspond to good solutions of the problem. The position of the agent corresponds to a solution of the problem, and its mass is determined using a fitness function.

Equations Involved

X= (x (i,1),.... x(i,d).... x(i,n) ) for i=1,2....N M(i,t)= [m(i,t)] / best(t)= (j {1.........N}) fit(j,t) . worst(t)= max(j {1.........N}) fit(j,t) F(i,d,t)= a(i,d,t)=

Xid represents the position of i th agent in d dimension Mass calculation

V(i,d,t+1)= rand*v(i,d,t)+a(i,d,t); X(i,d,t+1)= x(i,d,t)+v(i,d,t+1); G(t)=G(0)*exp(- *t/t_max )

Total force on ith particlewhere randj is a random number in the interval [0, 1], G(t) is the gravitational constant at time t, M(i) and M(j) are masses of agents i and j, is a small value and R(i,j,t) is the Euclidean distance between two agents, i and j.

P(loss,total)= stator copper loss + rotor copper loss + core loss. P(loss,total)= Is^2R(s)+Ir^2R(r)+V(m)^2/R(c) =v^2[(Z2+Zm)^2/Z(T)*Rs+(z(m)/z(T))^2/R(r)+(z(2)z(m))^2/z(T)/R(c) Where Z1 =R(s)+j 2fL(s) Z2= R(r)/s +j2fL(r) Z(m)= Z (T)=Z1 Z2+ Z1*Z(m)+ Z2 * Z(m) Slip(s)=N(s)-N(m)/N(s)
