The presented paper proposes a methodology that identifies the new investments in distribution power systems components in order to increase the probability of delivering power to any load point. The proposed methodology is based on statistical failure and repair data of distribution components and it uses a fuzzyprobabilistic modeling for the components outage parameters. The fuzzy membership ...

Coal based fired power plant is a very complex unit. Today’s electric energy is playing an important role in the industrial and all-round development of every country. It is desired form of energy, because it can be produced easily and transmitted economically. Further, it can be used efficiently and easily to domestic and industrial applications. Performance evaluation of such units is becomin...

Many systems can be modelled as a mission made up of a sequence of discrete phases. Each phase has a different requirement for successful completion and mission failure will result if any phase is unsuccessful. Fault tree analysis and Markov techniques have been used previously to model this type of system for non-repairable and repairable systems respectively. Cause-consequence analysis is an ...
