EU-CIRCLE methodological approach for assessing the resilience of the interconnected critical infrastructures of the virtual city scenario to climate change
Journal Title: Energetika - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
This paper introduces a methodological approach for identifying the resilience of interconnected EU critical infrastructures to climate change. The proposed approach tries to establish a consequence-based modelling framework for assessing climate-dependent causal relationships between CI operation and response to climate impacts with an aim to minimise disruptions to service flows under diverse conditions. The proposed study provides a description of the virtual city’s forest fire and smoke reference scenario with their optional damages to the electricity transmission and distribution network.

The combined heat and mass transit processes of water droplets in biofuel technologies
The number of thermal technologies is based on water droplets heat and mass transfer processes. In this paper droplets heat transfer and phase transformations were modelled in the context of water spraying in humid flue...
Faults diagnostics of high-voltage equipment based on the analysis of the dynamics of changing of the content of gases
In the article, the gas content of oils in high-voltage equipment with defects of different types is analysed. Typical gas contents and gas ratios for 38 most frequently encountered defects are presented and analysed. Th...
Dielectric properties of alumina ceramics for fusion applications
The insulating materials for radio frequency (RF) windows and different antenna supports for heating systems and some diagnostics are still an unresolved issue in future fusion machines such as DEMO. Alumina ceramic (Al2...
