This letter presents an extension of an existing ground distance relay algorithm to include phase distance relays. The algorithm uses a fault resistance estimation process in the phase domain, improving efficiency in the ...

Fault resistance is a critical component of electric power systems operation due to its stochastic nature. If not considered, this parameter may interfere in fault analysis studies. This paper presents an iterative fault ...

Structural and geomorphic surface observations are frequently insufficient for a proper geometric and kinematic characterization of Quaternary faults. In order to improve the geological knowledge of three Quaternary faults ...

The influence of the soil resistivity and the fault resistance is considered in this paper where a comparison of a well defined impedance based method for locating faults is presented. Tests were performed in a real power ...

The geometry and related geomorphological features of the right-lateral strike-slip El Tigre Fault, one of the main morphostructural discontinuities in the Central– Western Precordillera of Argentina, were investigated. ...

In this paper, an extended impedance-based fault-location formulation for generalized distribution systems is presented. The majority of distribution feeders are characterized by having several laterals, nonsymmetrical ...

We combined geoelectric and seismic ambient noise methods to image the shallow depth (<30 m) distribution of thermal waters in two fault-controlled hydrothermal systems located in southern Chile. The bedrock depth was ...
