A study on probability of distribution loads based on expectation maximization algorithm (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Ganjavi, A., Christopher, E., Johnson, C. M., & Clare, J. (2017). A study on probability of distribution loads based on expectation maximization algorithm. In IEEE Power and Energy Society Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference, ISGT 2017 (1-5). https://doi.org/10.1109/ISGT.2017.8086037

In a distribution power network, the load model has no certain pattern or predicted behaviour due to large range of data and changes in energy consumption for end-user consumers. Thus, a powerful analysis based on probabilistic structure is required.... Read More about A study on probability of distribution loads based on expectation maximization algorithm.

A new analysis for finding the optimum power rating of low voltage distribution power electronics based on statistics and probabilities (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Ganjavi, A., Christopher, E., Johnson, C. M., & Clare, J. C. (2017). A new analysis for finding the optimum power rating of low voltage distribution power electronics based on statistics and probabilities.

The continuing trend toward heavier load and high penetration of Distribution Generation (DG) units in low voltage rural distribution feeders requires power electronic-based solution alternatives for voltage regulation purposes. The design of power e... Read More about A new analysis for finding the optimum power rating of low voltage distribution power electronics based on statistics and probabilities.

Impedance sensitive STATCOM control for systems supported by renewable generation (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rose, C. J., Sumner, M., Thomas, D. W., & Christopher, E. (in press). Impedance sensitive STATCOM control for systems supported by renewable generation.

Reactive power control is known to be an effective means of controlling voltage; however, for optimal performance, the system reactance must be known. Power systems with high re-newable energy penetration have been known to have voltage stability iss...
