Title: Predictive Energy Function Based Power System Transient Stability Assessment and Improvement
Author: SAHAMI, AMIRREZA
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Electrical engineering
Description: Transient stability assessment and improvement are critical for power grid operation. It deals with the assessment of transient behavior of the power grid (especially the generators) when subjected to large disturbances. State-of-the-art approache...

Title: Frequency-Dependent Electric Power Line Modeling for Steady State Harmonic Analysis
Author: Poudel, Bikash
Date Created: 2016
Subjects--Topical: Electrical engineering, Engineering
Description: The modern electric power system is experiencing an increased level of harmonic frequency components because of the growing use of power electronic devices, such as converters, and nonlinear loads, such as rectifier-end loads. Electric power line ...

Title: Mitigating Consequences of Flooding in a Typical Boiling Water Reactor Similar to Fukushima Daiichi Plant in Japan
Author: Salehi, Kombiz
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Management
Description: The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant experienced a major accident on March 11, 2011, which was caused by a seismic event of 9.0 magnitude on the Richter scale followed by a tsunami wave of about 15 meters. This combination resulted in the los...

Title: Developing Data-Driven Approaches for Analyzing, Identifying, and Predicting Power System Outages
Author: Doostan, Milad
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Electrical engineering, Statistics
Description: Outages that occur in power distribution systems can seriously endanger system operation in different ways. In recent years, with the explosion in data gathering within the smart grid framework, data analytics has emerged as a desirable tool in he...

Title: AN IMPROVEMENT OF THE LOAD REDUCTION EVALUATION METHODOLOGIES EMPLOYED IN DEMAND RESPONSE (DR) PROGRAMS OFFERED TO RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS
Author: Mohajeryami, Saeed
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Engineering, Economics
Description: In current electricity market, demand side buys power indirectly through electric utilities, and it makes the demand side inelastic to market's price volatility and significantly affects the efficiency of the market. To fix the problem, it is esse...

Title: Optimal Sizing and Operation of Energy Storage Systems to Mitigate Intermittency of Renewable Energy Resources
Author: Naziri Moghaddam, Iman
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Electrical engineering
Description: Increased share of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in the generation mix requires higher flexibility in power system resources. The intermittent nature of the RES calls for higher reserves in power systems to smooth out the unpredictable power fluc...

Title: STRUCTURED OPTICAL MATERIALS FABRICATED USING TWO-PHOTON POLYMERIZATION
Author: Li, Yanzeng
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Materials science, Optics, Physics
Description: Artificially structured materials, which are treated as macroscopically homogeneous media, exhibit effective optical properties that can be altered by engineering the materials' intrinsic geometries at a scale much smaller than the probing electro...
