Electric underground distribution system is generally more reliable than overhead because it is not exposed to the severe weather events round the year. However, it is still prone to failures from corrosion, mechanical issues, animal intrusion to name a few. While the number of failures is typically much less the duration of outages are much...

The limitations of model-based support for engineering complex systems include limited capability to develop multifaceted models, as well as their analysis with robust reliable simulation engines. Lack of such Modeling and Simulation (M&S) infrastructure leads to knowledge gaps in engineering such complex systems and these gaps appear as epistemological emergent behaviors. In response, an initiative... Read more →
