The increased dependence on the electric power grid, coupled with the increasing number of new customers, motivates the need to improve the reliability and resilience of the electric distribution systems. Modern distribution systems are becoming more resilient against power outages due to the increasing integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and the availability of efficient mechanisms for load shedding. Several studies considered fault detection and Service Restoration (SR) as separate problems without considering the implementation feasibility of integrating both solutions. To ensure the resiliency in the power system, it is important to have proper mechanisms which integrate sensing, detection, and …

In addition to coring drilling, full (non-coring) drilling also occupies a large proportion in the energy exploration and development. Non-coring drilling can reduce the high time cost of lifting and lowering work required for coring, thereby increasing the net drilling time, improving the drilling efficiency and reducing the drilling costs. The traditional non-coring drill bits are prone to uneven wear on the bit surface during the drilling process. To identify and improve this law of uneven wear, it was herein proposed to use the assembling non-coring bit to improve the eccentric wear of bit. For this reason, numerical simulation analysis …
