Directional overcurrent relays are used to protect transmission lines against short circuits. Reducing the total operating time of relays has always been a challenge for protection engineers. For this purpose, various ...

With the increased use of wind power in power systems, the necessity of revision of conventional deterministic approaches is indisputable. Presenting new and effective methods based on uncertainty modeling is greatly ...

Oil is one of the most precious source of energy for the world and has an important role in the global economy. Therefore, the long-term prediction of the crude oil price is an important issue in economy and industry ...

Vulnerability mitigation and redundancy improvement are of the solutions for creating resilient distribution networks that aim to prevent the uncontrollable outage propagation. In this paper, a comparative study is proposed ...

Hierarchical control, which includes centralized and decentralized control systems, is a convenient method to control microgrids. The optimal operation of a microgrid from an economic point of view is the duty of the third ...

There is an increasing trend in consideration of the electricity-supply quality in modern power systems. One of the quality-related aspects is the desired level of reliability at the points of electrical-energy consumption ...

Reliability and robustness are two main goals in developing control systems for wind turbine  (WT) due to the existence of different sources, such as unknown malfunctions or faults. Their ignorance can significantly ...
