Abstract:

The Defense University Research Instrumentation Program DURIP is designed to improve the capabilities of U.S. Universities to conduct research and to educate scientists and engineers in selected technical areas of importance to national defense. DURIP funding provides for the acquisition of research equipment and instrumentation for this purpose. This proposal is for the purchase of a Multipurpose Real Time Simulator MRTS system. This equipment will be used to augment and enhance research capabilities in the area of complex microgrid modeling and controls.
