A Generalized Accelerated Failure Time Model To Predict Restoration Time From Power Outages, Tasnuba Binte Jamal
A Generalized Accelerated Failure Time Model To Predict Restoration Time From Power Outages, Tasnuba Binte Jamal
Graduate Thesis and Dissertation 2023-2024
Major disasters such as wildfire, tornado, hurricane, tropical storm, flooding cause disruptions in infrastructure systems such as power outage, disruption to water supply system, wastewater management, telecommunication failures, and transportation facilities. Disruptions in electricity infrastructures have negative impacts on sectors throughout a region, including education, medical services, financial, and recreation sectors. In this study, we introduce a novel approach to investigate the factors which can be associated with longer restoration time of power service after a hurricane. Considering restoration time as the dependent variable and utilizing a comprehensive set of county-level data, we have estimated a Generalized Accelerated Failure Time …
