Abstract
In this paper, a new method based on genetic-fuzzy algorithm for multi-objective optimization is proposed. This method is successfully applied to several multi-objective optimization problems. Two examples are presented: the first example is the optimization of two nonlinear mathematical functions and the second one is the design of PI controller for control of an induction motor drive supplied by Current-Source-Inverter (CSI). Step response of the system is considered and controller parameters are designed based on multi-objective optimization technique. Rise-time, maximum over-shoot, settling time and steady state error are considered as objective functions. The simulation results of the new method for induction motor speed control and optimization of two nonlinear mathematical functions are compared with the results obtained from other methods [4,14,15], which shows better performance.

Abstract
This paper introduces a novel passive suspension system for ground vehicles. This system is based on a flexible Electromagnetic Shock Absorber (EMSA). In the proposed system, efforts are made to a) select a high damping coefficient usable in a car b) determine Physical dimensions and geometry not much different from those of the mechanical shock absorbers and c) seletct EMSA weight and volume low enough for the core not to be saturated. A model is designed and developed followed by determining the dynamic equations for the model. The results from the simulation in a quarter car model are then compared with those from passive and active suspension systems.

Abstract
The rapid increase of non-linear loads in the last three decades has caused electrical quantities such as voltages and currents in 3-phase distribution systems to become distorted waveforms. This paper reviews, explains and discusses some new concepts, definitions and new available theory in the unbalanced and distorted systems. The usefulness of the proposed practical definitions is investigated by means of applying them to the real-world measurements of a three-phase electric arc furnace voltages and currents. Finally, the main power terms such as fundamental and non-fundamental power components, harmonic pollution, phase unbalance, active, reactive nonactive and distortion components are evaluated for a 3-phase arc furnace.
