A proposal for reliability evaluation of components on electric power distribution system integrating probabilistic models and fuzzy inference systems
(2012-11-26)
The system reliability depends on the reliability of its components itself. Therefore, it is necessary a methodology capable of inferring the state of functionality of these components to establish reliable indices of ...
Software architecture for web-based project management system
(2010-12-01)
This article presents software architecture for a web-based system to aid project managing, conceptually founded on guidelines of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK) and on ISO/IEC 9126, as well as on the ...
Invariance for Impulsive Control Systems
(2003-12-01)
In this article, we provide invariance conditions for control systems whose dynamics are given by measure driven differential inclusions. The solution concept plays a critical role in the extension of the conventional ...
Approximate prediction-based control method for nonlinear oscillatory systems with applications to chaotic systems
(Hindawi Limited, 2018)
The approximate Prediction-Based Control method (aPBC) is the continuous-time version of the well-known Prediction-Based Chaos Control method applied to stabilize periodic orbits of nonlinear dynamical systems. The method ...
An extension of the invariance principle for switched T-S fuzzy systems
(IEEEEuropean Control Association (EUCA)Zurich, 2013)
In this work, we propose an extension of the
invariance principle for switched T-S fuzzy systems using
an auxiliary function V for the convex combination of the
subsystems which applies to unstable subsystems. The ...
Comments, with reply on 'Continuous time relay-controlled model reference adaptive-system' by A. Abdulkareem and R. Nagarajam
(1989-07-01)
An adaptive scheme is shown by the authors of the above paper (ibid. vol. 71, no. 2, pp. 275-276, Feb. 1983) for continuous time model reference adaptive systems (MRAS), where relays replace the usual multipliers in the ...
A Real Test System For Power System Planning, Operation, and Reliability
(Springer, 2018-04-01)
Nowadays, several test systems available in the specialized literature are used to verify studies regarding power system planning or network reliability. However, there are no test systems currently available with enough ...
Improving the grid operation and reliability cost of distribution systems with dispersed generation
(2013-02-01)
In this work, a mathematical model to analyze the impact of the installation and operation of dispersed generation units in power distribution systems is proposed. The main focus is to determine the trade-off between the ...
Intelligent alarm processing
(2007-12-01)
This paper presents the analysis that have been carried out in the alarm system of the DCRanger EMS. The intention of this study is to present the problem of alarm processing in electric energy control centers, its various ...
