Its probability density function and the associated risk function were studied with promising results. We found some quantities such as moments, moment generating function, quantile function and median, as well Bonferroni and Lorenz curves, for the proposed distribution. We drawed a simulation and we employed the bootstrap resampling procedure for the standard errors of the estimators of the model parameters. We applied the new distribution to magnitudes earthquakes dataset from Fiji archipelago, glass ber resistance dataset to the proposed model, sub-models and competitors distributions. Also it was obtained a regression model for censored data that was applied to data from a study of AIDS, and a Bayesian model implemented for carbon bre data. Comparing with the others distributions, the results demonstrate that GEMOW has superior t to the applied dataset. / O presente trabalho generaliza a famí lia de distribui ções Marshall-Olkin pela adi ção de parâmetros, tornando-a uma nova classe mais flexível, criando-se a nova distribui ção Marshall-Olkin Generalizada Exponenciada Weibull (MOGEW). Foi estudado o comportamento da fun ção densidade de probabilidade MOGEW e sua respectiva fun ção de risco com resultados promissores. Encontrou-se algumas quantidades tais como fun ção geradora de momentos, fun ção quantí lica e mediana, al ém das curvas de Bonferroni e Lorenz, para a distribui ção proposta. Obteve-se uma simula ção e utilizou-se o m étodo de reamostragem bootstrap para obter os erros padrão dos estimadores dos parâmetros do modelo. Para aplica ção foram utilizados dados de magnitudes de abalos s ísmicos pr óximos ao arquipélago de Fiji, dados de resistência de fi bras de vidro ajustando o modelo proposto, submodelos e distribui ções concorrentes. Tamb ém se obteve um modelo de regressão para dados censurados que foi aplicado a dados de um estudo sobre AIDS e um modelo Bayesiano para dados de quebra de fi bras de carbono. Os resultados mostraram que a distribui ção apresenta ajuste superior, em compara ção as distribui ções concorrentes, para os conjuntos de dados aplicados.

abstract: The smart grid initiative is the impetus behind changes that are expected to culminate into an enhanced distribution system with the communication and control infrastructure to support advanced distribution system applications and resources such as distributed generation, energy storage systems, and price responsive loads. This research proposes a distribution-class analog of the transmission LMP (DLMP) as an enabler of the advanced applications of the enhanced distribution system. The DLMP is envisioned as a control signal that can incentivize distribution system resources to behave optimally in a manner that benefits economic efficiency and system reliability and that can optimally couple the transmission and the distribution systems. The DLMP is calculated from a two-stage optimization problem; a transmission system OPF and a distribution system OPF. An iterative framework that ensures accurate representation of the distribution system's price sensitive resources for the transmission system problem and vice versa is developed and its convergence problem is discussed. As part of the DLMP calculation framework, a DCOPF formulation that endogenously captures the effect of real power losses is discussed. The formulation uses piecewise linear functions to approximate losses. This thesis explores, with theoretical proofs, the breakdown of the loss approximation technique when non-positive DLMPs/LMPs occur and discusses a mixed integer linear programming formulation that corrects the breakdown. The DLMP is numerically illustrated in traditional and enhanced distribution systems and its superiority to contemporary pricing mechanisms is demonstrated using price responsive loads. Results show that the impact of the inaccuracy of contemporary pricing schemes becomes significant as flexible resources increase. At high elasticity, aggregate load consumption deviated from the optimal consumption by up to about 45 percent when using a flat or time-of-use rate. Individual load consumption deviated by up to 25 percent when using a real-time price. The superiority of the DLMP is more pronounced when important distribution network conditions are not reflected by contemporary prices. The individual load consumption incentivized by the real-time price deviated by up to 90 percent from the optimal consumption in a congested distribution network. While the DLMP internalizes congestion management, the consumption incentivized by the real-time price caused overloads. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S. Electrical Engineering 2013
