Reliability Evaluation in Microgrids With Non-Exponential Failure Rates of Power Units

This article explores the impacts of non-exponentially distributed failures on reliability of microgrids. Failure rate of some components such as power electronic converters is not constant, while they play a major role in microgrids. Consequently, their failure characteristics will affect the micro...
