Abstract:

Doctor of Philosophy(PhD)<br>This thesis employs survival analysis framework (Allison, 1984) and the Cox’s hazard model (Cox, 1972) to estimate the probability that a credit rating survives in its current grade at a certain forecast horizon. The Cox’s hazard model resolves some significant drawbacks of the conventional estimation approaches. It allows a rigorous testing of non-Markovian behaviours and time heterogeneity in rating dynamics. It accounts for the changes in risk factors over time, and features the time structure of probability survival estimates. The thesis estimates three stratif

Abstract:

Many power transmission systems are under pressure from increasing load demand as well as changes in power flows due to the evolution of the power market and the integration of renewable energy generations. At the same time, limited finance for installing new cables and the difficulties in reinforcement of existing circuits in urban areas incentivize transmission operators around the world to find ways to maximize the flexibility and usage of their existing transmission network. As a result, it is crucial to adopt new current rating methods which are able to optimize asset utilization, minimiz

Huvudsyftet med detta projekt var att utvärdera möjligheten att använda metoder för ”dynamic rating” för att dimensionera (trekärniga) strömkablar som ansluter havsbaserade vindkraftparker. Flera publikationer från kabelindustrin visar att de metoder för att beräkna armeringsförluster som föreslås av IEC för (trekärniga) strömkablar är väldigt konservativa. Målet med projektet var att utveckla mer precisa modeller för att uppskatta armeringsförluster på ett mindre konservativt sätt.

Abstract:

There is a general consensus worldwide for a need to increase the capacities of transmission lines by not physically altering the transmission structures. Amidst this challenge, dynamic thermal rating (DTR) system appears as an appropriate option. Besides that, many countries have also pledged to integrate wind energy sources into their power networks. Taking these as motivations, the purpose of this thesis is to carry out the reliability analysis of DTR system for transmission lines.

Abstract:

Due to the increase in electrical demand and renewable penetration, electrical utilities need to improve and optimize the grid infrastructure. Fundamental components in this grid infrastructure are transformers, which are designed conservatively on the base of a static rated power. However, load and weather change continuously and hence, transformers are not used in the most efficient way. For this reason a new technology has been developed: Dynamic transformer rating (DTR). By applying DTR, it is possible to load transformers above the nameplate rating without affecting their life time expect

Abstract:

There is an ever increasing demand of electricity and to meet this demand, installation of new transmission and distribution lines is required. This task requires a significant investment and consent from the respective authorities. An alternative is to utilize maximum capability of the existing lines. Static line ratings are based on a conservative estimate, which means that on most occasions, the actual capacity of lines is much higher than the static line ratings. In order to provide a solution to this problem, this thesis introduces an approach that has been developed to utilize real time

Dynamic Rating (DR) is usually associated with unlocking the capacity of power lines and transformers using available information on weather conditions. Our studies show that Dynamic Rating is a broad concept that requires further study and development. The capacity of the majority of power devices is highly dependent on the heat transfer properties of the materials which the devices are made of. To ensure correct power limits of the equipment, one must take into consideration not only the power load, but also ambient conditions, such as: temperature, wind speed, wind direction, solar irradiat

The traditional power systems are statically rated and sometimes renewable energy sources (RES) are curtailed in order not to exceed this static rating. The RES are curtailed because of their intermittent character and therefore, it is difficult to predict their output at specific time periods throughout the day.

The requirement for additional headroom can come from a number of sources including, limitations in the current network configuration, the need to provide connections to new consumers at minimal cost and to provide additional capacity in the transition to the low carbon economy. DTRs are a method by which the current carrying capacity of power system components such as transformers and overhead lines can

Pour répondre à trois enjeux principaux que sont la sûreté des installations, le respect d'exigences règlementaires et l'optimisation des moyens de production, EDF-DTG a développé un réseau d'observations qui comprend les paramètres climatiques tels que la température de l'air, les précipitations et l'enneigement, mais aussi le débit des rivières. Les données collectées permettent la surveillance en « temps réel » des cours d'eau ainsi que la réalisation d'études hydrologiques quantitatives ou de dimensionnement qui nécessitent de disposer de séries patrimoniales de références.

Abstract:

Many researchers have devoted their work to the development of modal analysis extraction techniques in order to obtain more reliable identification of the modal parameters. Also, as a consequence of all this work, there are some other works devoted to the evaluation and comparison of these methods in order to find which one is the most reliable method with respect to certain characteristics. In this thesis the Rational Fraction Polynomial (RFP) Method, the Prony or Complex Exponential Method (CEM), the Ibrahim Time Domain (ITD) Method, and Hilbert Envelope Method are used to evaluate how the

Abstract:

In this Thesis we address the study of some non-linear evolution equations (e.g. pde's) modelling the dynamics of sexually-reproducing structured populations, with special emphasis on biological evolution driven by natural selection. The latter is incorporated into the models through the adaptive dynamics, which is a way of describing how the hereditary characteristics of the population evolve. The sex-ratio, defined as the proportion between females and males, is analyzed from the evolutionary point of view.<br/><br/>The memoir is divided into two parts plus a brief introduction to age-struct

Abstract:

This thesis presents a series of studies on the dynamics of high mass ratio multiples, with applications to planetary systems orbiting stars and stellar systems orbiting supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Almost two thousand exoplanetary systems have recently been discovered, and their configurations gave rise to new puzzles to planetary formation theories. We studied the dynamics of planetary systems aiming to understand how the configuration of planetary system is sculptured and to probe the origin of planetary systems. First, we discussed hierarchical three-body dynamics, which can be appl

Abstract:

Earthquakes are among the most destructive natural disasters affecting urban populations. Structural damage caused by the earthquakes varies depending not only on the seismic source and propagation properties but also on the soil properties. The amplitude and frequency content of seismic shear waves reaching the earth&rsquo<br>s surface is dependent on local soil conditions. It is well known that the soft sediments on top of hard bedrock can greatly amplify the ground motion and cause severe structural damage. When the fundamental period of the soil is close to the fundamental period of a stru

Abstract:

On the Blue Nile in Sudan, near the Ethiopian border, there is a measurement station named El Deim. The discharge assessments carried out at this station are crucial for the water resource management in Sudan. Due to changed conditions, caused by a heightening of the downstream-located Roseires dam, new methods for discharge assessment are needed. The objective of the present study was to examine possibilities and methodologies to assess the discharge at this station. The flow dynamics was examined through steady state as well as dynamic hydraulic modeling by use of the Mike 11 modeling softwa

Abstract:

This thesis concerns the behaviour of maps with a unique critical point which is either a maximum or a minimum: so-called unimodal maps. Our first main result proves that for C2+η unimodal maps with non-flat critical point we have good control on the behaviour of cross-ratios on small scales. This result, an improvement on a result of Kozlovski in [K2], proves that in many cases the negative Schwarzian condition (which is not even defined if a map is not C3) is unnecessary. This result follows recent work of Shen, van Strien and Vargas. The main tools are standard cross-ratio estimates, the us
