This study presents a mixed-integer second-order conic programming (MISOCP) model for the robust reconfiguration of electrical distribution systems, considering the minimisation of active power losses and reliability ...

In this paper, a hybrid heuristic methodology that employs fuzzy logic for solving the AC transmission network expansion planning (AC-TEP) problem is presented. An enhanced constructive heuristic algorithm aimed at obtaining ...

Consider a network where the links are subject to random, independent failures. The diameter constrained network reliability parameter R(G,K,D) measures the probability that the set K of terminals of the network are linked ...

In this paper, we propose a polynomial-time algorithm for detecting and deleting edges of a network which are irrelevant in the evaluation of the Source-to-terminal Diameter Constrained Network reliability parameter. As ...

Consider a communication network with a set of sites and a set of links between them. Suppose that the sites are perfect but the links can fail independently from one another. Suppose also that at any given instant t, every ...

This work proposes a methodology for optimized allocation of switches for automatic load transfer in distribution systems in order to improve the reliability indexes by restoring such systems which present voltage classes ...
