Focus on the design and control of resilient, interconnected microgrids for mass transit systems:1. Propose a novel engineering design framework to replace an existing railway infrastructure with resilient, interconnected microgrids for sustained operations of railway infrastructure. 2. Defining a list of proposed key performance indicators that can be used to assess the resiliency of the proposed designs. Conducting a resiliency performance analysis using the defined list of resiliency key performance indicators.3. Performing a requirement analysis, using quality function deployment methods, with an emphasis on resiliency, for the design and implementation of resilient, interconnected microgrids to supply reliable energy to railway infrastructures. 4. A proposed iterative sizing analysis method for the interconnected microgrid components with appropriate resilience targets considered.5. Develop an integrated, deterministic mathematical model of resilient, interconnected microgrids. Modelling the system in Simulink using electrical component wise models of renewable sources, energy storage systems, electric grid, and railway infrastructure. Performing a weather disturbance analysis to observe the effects of varying climate on the performance of the system. 6. Design a supervisory control architecture to coordinate a sustained operation of the railway infrastructure. 7. Implement a multi-objective decision making tool, using game theory techniques, to coordinate the exchange of energy between microgrids. Define the objective function, system constraints and appropriate decision variable for the systems. Integrate the decision making tool in the supervisory control architecture and map the tool to the model.
