Assessing the potential of network reconfiguration to improve distributed generation hosting capacity in active distribution systems by Margossian, Harag

“…This paper explores how the DG hosting capacity of active distribution systems can be increased by means of network reconfiguration, both static, i.e., grid reconfiguration at planning stage, and dynamic, i.e., grid reconfiguration using remotely controlled switches as an active network management (ANM) scheme. …”

Finite-element solution of monopolar corona on bundle conductors by Al-Hamouz, Z.

“…A finite-element iterative-based method is developed to analyze the monopolar ionized field and, hence, compute the associated corona power loss on bundle conductors (bundles two, three, and four are considered). The effect of the number of bundles, and the bundle spacing on the corona current and ground-plane current density profiles is investigated. …”
