Power System Resilience Following a Cascadia Subduction Zone Earthquake

Creator:: Weinmann, Riley
Abstract:: Just off the coast of the Pacific Northwest lies the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ); odds of a very large CSZ earthquake occurring in the next 50 years is estimated to be about 37%. A CSZ seismic event has the potential to cause wide scale damage not just to the power...

Advancing Power Grid Computing: Analysis and Synthesis of Wide-Area Data, Distributed Real-Time Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulations, and Machine Learning for Event Detection

Creator:: Hagan, Travis
Abstract:: Global Positioning Systems have allowed for precise timing of power system measurements over wide areas. This newly found capability has the potential to provide much greater insight into the operation of the power system and its response to contingencies, but few analytical techniques currently exist that provide enough robustness and...

Enhancing Resolution and Scalability of Power Grid Reliability Algorithms

Creator:: Lassetter, Austin R.
Abstract:: This Thesis aims to determine whether we can improve the accuracy, resolution, and speed of calculations for common power system problems using simple computational models that scale well to machine learning and high performance computing solutions. The second chapter of this Thesis implements more precise aging and degradation models for...

A Generation Prioritization Method for Power System Restoration with Renewable Resources

Creator:: Mate, Adam
Abstract:: The electrical grid is a key component of the Nation's critical infrastructure. Its continuous and reliable operation is of vital importance; any system-wide disruption would have a debilitating impact on crucial services, public health and safety, the economy, and the national security of the United States. High-impact low-frequency events pose...

Power System Planning for Sustainable, Reliable, and Accessible Electricity: Models, Methods, and Metrics

Creator:: Cicilio, Phylicia R.
Abstract:: Generation resources are shifting from centralized, high inertial, fossil fuel based to decentralized, no inertia, and variable renewable resources. The evolution of generation resources in electrical grids requires the transformation of the electrical grid infrastructure, and operation and planning procedures and standards. This dissertation takes four investigations into how to...

Risk and Uncertainty Quantification Methods in Electrical Power Systems

Creator:: Johnson, Brandon S.
Abstract:: Load flow studies are one of the most essential engineering applications for grid operators because they provide a clear picture of the operating conditions of the power system. Traditionally, the load flow problem is assumed to be deterministic; that is, the system variables contain no randomness. Unfortunately, this assumption is...

Partitioning Techniques to Improve Resilience and Cyber Security in Electric Grid Infrastructure

Creator:: Huo, Chen
Abstract:: With the increasing penetration of renewable energy integration and potential threats from natural disasters, modern electric power system have been significantly exposed to both small- and large-scale disturbances. Traditional performance metrics including indices of reliability, stability, and security are no longer adequate to describe a power network. Infrastructure properties like...

Development of Machine Learning Tools for Increased Reliability of the Electrical Grid

Creator:: Dieter, Keaton J.
Abstract:: The electrical grid serves as one of the major lifelines to our society. We have come to expect electricity to be available when we want it. But the system that delivers power to us is very complex and made up of many individual pieces. Maintaining and operating this system reliably...

Dynamic Load Model Placement and Development with Case Study of Microgrid in Nome, Alaska

Creator:: Cicilio, Phylicia
Abstract:: Dynamic modeling is key to the successful operation and reliability of electrical grids by evaluating transient stability. Developing dynamic load models and identifying where they are necessary is a challenging task as loads are an aggregation of individual devices that change throughout the year. This thesis investigates how to develop...

Evaluating the Effects of System Operators’ Response on the Propagation of PowerSystem Cascading Failures

Creator:: Hennessy, Conor F.
Abstract:: The majority of power system cascading models assume that system operators will react perfectly and timely to an electrical event. However, as evidenced by several blackouts in the last decades, the inadequate system operators’ situation awareness and response can contribute significantly to the severity of an electrical disturbance. Under these...
