The frequency of extreme weather events and the resulting impact on the electric grid has
grown in recent years. This paper reviews previous work on distribution system resilience …

The distribution network is the most exposed part of the electrical power system relative to
different abnormal events; therefore, it reports the highest occurrence rates in terms of …

This article is dedicated to the optimal operation and management of reconfigurable
distribution systems considering the high penetration of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) …

The distribution network restoration aims to determine the optimal radial topology for healing
the un-supplied-loads as much as possible with the minimum number of switching …

Distribution system restoration (DSR) is one of the most challenging problems of modern
distribution network under the umbrella of smart grids. DSR is aimed to resupply out-of …

Extreme weather events threaten the power grid infrastructure and cause extended
disruptions of electricity supply to the critical services. Severe storms remain the primary …

The 9500 Node Test System is a representative section of distribution power system model
developed as a part of the GridAPPS-D™ project, an effort funded by DOE as a part of the …

This paper addresses with a modified sequential opening of branches (MSOB) method to
service restoration under different load levels as self-healing distribution systems. This …

In order to seek alternatives to accelerate the solution process in a reconfiguration problem,
this article uses the notions of graph theory to propose the exploration of different techniques …

Enhancing distribution system resilience is essential to ensure customer survivability during
extreme events. System hardening and smart operational techniques can be used to …
