Rescheduled Webinar on 5/5/2021: Coupled Infrastructure Modeling of Electric Grid and Transportation Networks

Speakers: Yanzhi Ann Xu (Texas Transportation Institute) and Komal Shetye (Texas A&M University) Abstract: The increasing proliferation of electric vehicles (EVs) is invariably increasing the coupling between two complex and critical infrastructure networks– the power grid and transportation systems. There has been a lot of research done in modeling EVs as loads in distribution grids, to evaluate

Webinar on 3/31/2021: Improving the Reliability and Health of Distribution Circuits Using Real-Time Diagnostics and Incipient Failure Detection Preventing Outages, Fire Ignition and Safety Hazards

Speakers: Dr. B. Don Russell, Mr. Carl Benner, Jeffrey Wischkaemper, and Karthick Manivannan (Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, TAMU) Abstract: Electric power distribution circuits are rigorously built to require little maintenance or inspection. Yet failures do occur leading to outages and unsafe conditions. It has long been known that periodic inspections offer only marginal improvements in
