Efficient Graph Partitioning under Resource Constraints: A Cutting-Plane Framework for Distribution Grids
Duong Thuy Anh Nguyen, Harsha Nagarajan, Robert Ferrando +2
This paper presents an optimal network topology control framework using cutting-plane methods for efficient network partitioning with controllable edges. The objective is to enable…
A Hybrid Decomposition Approach for Stochastic Unit Commitment with Combined-Cycle Generators
Rosemary Barrass, Harsha Nagarajan, Mathieu Tanneau +2
The U.S. power grid is undergoing a paradigm shift as energy demand grows in scale and volatility. In response to this growing need, the U.S. has increased adoption of combined-cyc…
Optimal Trajectory Planning for Space Object Tracking with Collision-Avoidance Constraints
Saif R. Kazi, Harsha Nagarajan, Hassan Hijazi +1
A control optimization approach is presented for a chaser spacecraft tasked with maintaining proximity to a target space object while avoiding collisions. The target object traject…
Reconfiguration and Real-Time Operation of Networked Microgrids Under Load Uncertainty
Hannah Moring, Bala Kameshwar Poolla, Harsha Nagarajan +3
Distribution networks are increasingly exposed to threats such as extreme weather, aging infrastructure, and cyber risks--resulting in more frequent contingencies and outages, a tr…
Leveraging Quantum Computing for Accelerated Classical Algorithms in Power Systems Optimization
Rosemary Barrass, Harsha Nagarajan, Carleton Coffrin
The recent advent of commercially available quantum annealing hardware (QAH) has expanded opportunities for research into quantum annealing-based algorithms. In the domain of power…
Robust Partitioning and Operation for Maximal Uncertain-Load Delivery in Distribution Grids
Hannah Moring, Harsha Nagarajan, Kshitij Girigoudar +2
To mitigate the vulnerability of distribution grids to severe weather events, some electric utilities use preemptive de-energization as the primary line of defense, causing signifi…
