Comparison of metaheuristic optimization techniques including Equilibrium optimizer algorithm in power distribution network reconfiguration

Equilibrium Optimizer (EO) is a new search algorithm inspired by the balance state of a simple and dynamic mass that is well-mixed on the region of the control volume. In this study, the EO algorithm is applied to the power distribution network reconfiguration (PDNR) for reducing active power loss,...
