  • Exploring security metrics for electric grid infrastructure leveraging attack graphs

    Creator:
    Patapanchala, Panini Sai
    Abstract:
    Electric grid is a critical cyber-physical infrastructure that serves as lifeline for modern society. With the increasing trend of cyber-attacks, electric grid security has become a significant concern. Electric grid operators are working hard to reduce the risk of these attacks towards the system. Having security metrics for monitoring the...

    Chalishazar, Vishvas H.
    Abstract:
    The Pacific Northwest is part of the "Ring of Fire," which is well-known for heavy seismic activity. Numerous active faults in the area have encouraged electric grid managers in the region to more deeply contemplate and proactively intervene to support grid resilience. This research introduces Monte Carlo (MC) based power...

  • Proof of concept of the use of RAVEN and RELAP5-3D for risk informed safety margin characterization

    Creator:
    Riley, Thomas H.
    Abstract:
    This project was a proof of concept of the use of the RAVEN software, a tool developed for the Risk Informed Safety Margin Characterization (RISMC) approach, with RELAP5-3D. This novel approach combines older probabilistic and mechanistic approaches to look at how and why the complex systems of a nuclear power...
