Abstract :
Resource management is a crucial task during natural or man-made disasters to maximize the number of saved lives. As part of the vital resources, electricity restoration has a high priority for increasing the performance of critical infrastructures such as hospitals and water pumping stations. Also, the interdependencies between these infrastructures have to be taken into account in the process of service restoration to ensure their maximum operational capacity. In this paper, the problem of service restoration in a distribution system to maximize the operational capacity of a hospital is formulated. Different case studies are considered to show the effectiveness of the proposed method under a variety of emergency situations.
