This paper proposes a methodology based on the unconstrained binary programming (UBP) model and an optimization immune algorithm (IA) to estimate fault sections in electric power systems. The UBP model is formulated using ...

This work proposes an unconstrained binary programming (UBP) model for fault section estimation in power systems. UBP model consists in a set of equations that represent in a logical way the expected states of the relays ...

Power distribution automation and control are import-ant tools in the current restructured electricity markets. Unfortunately, due to its stochastic nature, distribution systems faults are hardly avoidable. This paper ...

This paper presents a novel mathematical model for fast fault section estimation in a Distribution Control Center (DCC). The mathematical model is divided into two parts, namely: (1) a protection system operations model ...

A new method, based on binary integer programming, to solve the problem of fault section estimation in power systems is developed in this work. This optimization model is formulated based on a set of minimum covers, subject ...
