A unified framework for wide area measurement system planning

A Unified Framework for Wide Area Measurement System Planning

Wide area measurement system (WAMS) is one of the essential components in the future power system. To make WAMS construction plans, practical models of the power network observability, reliability, and underlying communication infrastructures need to be considered. To address this challenging problem, in this paper we propose a unified framework for WAMS planning to cover most realistic concern...

A Methodology for Unified Assessment of Physical and Geographical Dependencies of Wide Area Measurement Systems in Smart Grids

Wide Area Measurement Systems (WAMS) enable real time monitoring and control of smart grids by combining digital measurement devices, communication and control systems. As WAMS consist of various infrastructures, they imply complex dependencies among their underlying systems and components of different types, such as cyber, physical and geographical dependencies. Although several works exist in...

Error Separation for Wide Area Film Measurement

We wanted to use a multiple probes and white light interferometer to measure the surface profile of thin film. However, this system, as assessed with a scanning method, suffers from the presence of a moving stage and systematic sensor errors. In this paper, in order to separate measurement error caused by the moving stage and systematic sensor errors, the least squares analysis is applied to ac...

A planning framework for post-disaster collective shelters

Background and objective: Accommodation of the victims is necessary immediately after the accident to maintain order and reduce mental, psychological and physical crises, as well as providing better services to the victims of the accident. The experience of the AQ-Qala flood and the temporary accommodation of the victims in sports venues has made the need for the design of a collective shelter ...
