Statistical comparison of clouds and star clusters [PDF]
The extent to which the projected distribution of stars in a cluster is due to a large-scale radial gradient, and the extent to which it is due to fractal sub-structure, can be quantified -- statistically -- using the measure ${\cal Q} = \bar{m}/\bar{s}$.

Aromatic Network: A Novel Structure for Power Distribution System
A distribution network is one of the main parts of a power system as it is connected directly to the load center and can act as a microgrid during an islanding operation.

Sensitivity analysis of radial distribution network – adjoint network method
Abstract This paper deals with the application of the Tellegen theorem for the sensitivity analysis of a radial distribution system using the Tellegen theorem. A modified Tellegen theorem expression was derived and was used to develop the adjoint network of the distribution network.

Voltage stability analysis of radial distribution networks
The paper presents voltage stability analysis of radial distribution networks. A new voltage stability index is proposed for identifying the node, which is most sensitive to voltage collapse. Composite load modelling is considered for the purpose of voltage stability analysis. It is also shown that the load flow solution of radial distribution networks
