Maintenance in transmission networks is an economical way to reduce upgrading network costs without decreasing its reliability. Hence, new studies regarding transmission expansion planning (TEP) must take into account the ...

This study developed a generic cost-effective approach for spatially explicit decision support 30 involved in the allocation of road repair treatments under mountainous conditions. The approach 31 begins with an assessment ...

This paper presents a new model for optimal integrated planning of medium and low voltage distribution systems with penetration of distributed generation (DG) in the low voltage network. The proposed bilevel model takes ...

The efficiency of a fault monitoring system critically depends on the structure of the plant instrumentation system. For processes monitored using principal component analysis, the multivariate statistical technique most ...

In a world where the Internet of Things allows constant network aggregation, the resources demand turns the network management role in a great challenge. Nowadays, local and metropolitan networks have problems with the ...

The connection of renewable energy distributed generators (DG) to radial feeders is assessed. Often, the long distance between renewable power sources and the transmission system, in addition to the small capacity of these ...
