RESILIENCE IN POWER GRIDS This thesis presents a linear programming model to assess power grid resilience as a particular case of Supply Chain Management. Power grids share basic characteristics with Supply Chain Management. Since resilient behavior is not an individual or specific system''s attribute but a holistic phenomenon based on the synergic interaction within complex systems, resilience drivers in power grids were identified. Resilience is a function of Reliability, Recovery capability, Vulnerability and Pipeline Capacity. In order to embed heterogeneous variables into the model, parameterization of resilience drivers were developed. A principle of improving resilience through redundancy was applied in the model by using a virtual redundancy in each link which allows reliability improvement throughout the entire network. Vulnerability was addressed through a quantitative standard and mitigated through security allocation.Decision makers are enabled...
