System reliability indices deal with the adequacy of overall system supply and indicates behaviour response. The index express interruption statistics in terms customers which can be an individual, firm, or organization that purchases electric services at one location under rate classification, contract schedule. include: Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI), Duration (SAIDI), Customer ...

This paper investigates the suitability of Latin Hypercube sampling (LHS) for composite electric power system reliability analysis. Each sample generated in LHS is mapped into an equivalent system state and used for evaluating the annualized system and load point indices. DC loadflow based state evaluation model is solved for each sampled contingency state. The indices evaluated are loss of loa...

The paper presents a simplified approach to evaluate the risk index whose minimization results in the enhancement of power system reliability. The risk indices evaluated in the paper includes mainly LOLP (loss of load probability) and LOLE (loss of load expectation) with more emphasis on LOLE as it indicates the expected number of days in the specified periods in which the daily peak load will ...

OBJECTIVE In this study, the capability of statistical analysis indices to characterize static automated visual fields (VFs) accurately in cases of far-advanced glaucoma was assessed. DESIGN Retrospective observational case series. PARTICIPANTS Sixteen eyes of 15 patients with end-stage glaucoma and evidence of collapse of VF statistical analysis indices were included in the study. METHOD...

General technical problems of obtaining coefficients of reliability polynomials for different reliability indices, such as all-terminal reliability, average pairwise reliability and average size of a connected sub-graph containing a special node are discussed in the paper. It is shown that one of possible forms of a reliability polynomial presentation helps in considerable speeding up of its ob...
