Miroslav Madon (2015) Application for designing overhead power lines – Electra. EngD thesis.
Abstract
In the thesis we present some technical solutions concerning the development of program Electra, which is used for overhead power lines planning and design. We also describe a typical example for the usage of Electra program. We start with the motives for the development of the program and the issues Electra addresses and solves . In the second chapter the technology and program tools that were used for the development of application and the platforms on which the Electra program runs are given. Chapter No.3 presents the field that deals with overhead power lines planning and construction. Some actual software solutions available on the market that adress the problem are briefed as well. The basic purpose of Electra application is presented as well as the demanded functionality of it. In the fourth chapter the development and functioning of application are detailed. The implementation of user interfaces with the stress on the interactive drawing is shown here alongside with the implementation of the data layer of application and the classes used for numerical calculations. Theoretical basis for catenary calculation is given. The second half of chapter No.4 contains a description of typical process for program usage. The use of implemented functionality is presented through the user interface. We conclude with the final establisments and some possible improvements.
