Abstract
In this study, a multiobjective optimization is applied to Optimal Power Flow Problem (OPF). To effectively achieve this goal, a Multiobjective Ant Lion algorithm (MOALO) is proposed to find the Pareto optimal front for the multiobjective OPF. The aim of this work is to reach good solutions of Active and Reactive OPF problem by optimizing 4-conflicting objective functions simultaneously. Here are generation cost, environmental pollution emission, active power losses, and voltage deviation. The performance of the proposed MOALO algorithm has been tested on various electrical power systems with different sizes such as IEEE 30-bus, IEEE 57-bus, IEEE 118-bus, IEEE 300-bus systems and on practical Algerian DZ114-bus system. The results of the tests proved the versatility of the algorithm when applied to large systems. The effectiveness of the proposed method has been confirmed by comparing the results obtained with those obtained by other algorithms given in the literature for the same test systems.

Abstract
A novel architecture is proposed in the present paper for detection and monitoring of air pollution at real-time condition following industrial standard, embedded with gas sensors which are able to identify both organic as well as inorganic hazardous contents. A vis-à-vis comparative analysis is carried out with existing literature highlighting cons of most referred circuits, both in component, system and power consumption levels, and a generalized drawback is reported citing their inefficacy for real-time data collection and accuracy level. Detailed review is reported based on qualitative assessments also, and henceforth, justifies the significance of the proposed design; where not only higher ranges of detection are possible, however is also associated with lower power consumption (26.41% and 10.71% respectively compared to the two latest circuits) and finer detection of dust particles even at extremely low concentration. The architecture will help to implicate precautionary steps at real-time condition for controlling the harmful effect in Society.

Abstract
Bushings are one of the most important components of electrical equipment such as power transformers, reactors, capacitors. Most of the installed bushings have Oil-Immersed Paper (OIP) insulation structure. Bushing failure is caused by various reasons such as poor manufacturing process, overloading and also poor installation process, but moisture ingress is one of the main reasons of OIP bushing defect during its operation. In this paper, the electric field distribution of OIP bushings in multiple situations are simulated and effects of moisture distribution are analyzed. The simulations are stablished in polluted and clean surfaces of the studied bushing and done by COMSOL Multiphysics Software. The results show that non-uniform moisture distribution has a significant effect on electric fields of OIP insulation. This effect strongly increases with increasing the pollution on the external insulator of the bushing.
