Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3Hybrid Power System for Mobile Robotics(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-11) Mohammad Sadeghi, Majid; Kececi, Emin Faruk; Sadeghi, Majid MohammadThe power source is a design characteristic for a mobile robot in which the energy source used must provide enough power for a desired period of time depending on the specific task of a robot. Batteries are the most common power source of energy on mobile robots. Important factors for selecting battery solution as the power source includes weight of the batteries, maximum power availablility, maximum discharge rate, and the endurance of a battery. On the other hand, when the ratio of weight to energy is considered, overall, a gasoline engine is more efficient than a battery power system. This paper explains a design and realization of a hybrid energy system for a mobile robot where a gasoline engine powers an alternator to create electricity and this electrical energy is used to drive and power the electronics of the robot, with the understanding that it can only be used outside. The theory of a gasoline-electrical hybrid power system is explained and later by using a 5.5 horsepower (hp) Loncin engine and a car alternator a hybrid system is designed, manufactured and tested. The test results show the effectiveness of the design. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 6Distribution Automation Effects on Reliability During Major Contingencies(IEEE Computer Society help@computer.org, 2018-05) Yoldaş, Yeliz; Onen, Ahmet; Alan, İrfan; Broadwater, Robert P.Distribution automation affects reliability by providing faster restoration ability. In this study, the effect of distribution automation on radial distribution circuits during substation failures at peak load is investigated. The ultimate goal is to compare circuit automation to manual operation, where the comparison evaluates planning criteria reliability for customer interruption hours. The results show that distribution automation can improve reliability measurements such as SAIDI, SAIFI and CAIDI. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
