Self-Organizing Map-Based Resilience Quantification and Resilient Control of Distribution Systems Under Extreme Events
Due to climate change, extreme weather events are occurring more frequently and with increasing impact. This trend poses a significant challenge for distribution system operators (DSO) to ensure that there is uninterrupted power supply to critical loads in their networks. To embed...
