This paper discusses and compares different control techniques for damping undesirable inter-area oscillation in power systems by means of Power System Stabilizers (PSS), Static Var Compensators (SVC) and Shunt Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOM). The oscillation problem is analyzed from the point of view of Hopf bifurcations, an “extended” eigen analysis to study different controllers, t...

In terms of damping low frequency oscillation, power system stabilizer(PSS) plays a very key role. However, in terms of PSS capability exploitation, it is quite important to select the suitable parameters assignment. Different from traditional optimization algorithms with eigenvalue analysis based and with system damping ratio as the aim function, in this paper a new PSS parameters method based...

Power system stabilizers (PSSs) are the most well-known and effective tools to damp power system oscillation caused by disturbances. To gain a good transient response, the design methodology of the PSS is quite important. The tuning of the PSS parameters for a multi-machine power system is usually formulated as an objective function with constraints consisting of the damping factor and damping ...

A Power System Stabilizer (PSS) is the most cost effective approach of increase the system positive damping, improve the steady-state stability margin, and suppress the low-frequency oscillation of the power system. A PSS has to perform well under operating point variations. Some of the major issues in the application of PSS are the choice of the input signal, the location of the PSS, the contr...

Frequency response characteristics of bumblebees to vertical visual oscillations were measured and analyzed. We measured the vertical force of the bees at four oscillation frequencies (0.9, 1.8, 3.6 and 7.4 Hz), and summarized their response characteristics in terms of amplitude and phase differences. The amplitude was almost constant throughout the examined frequency domain, whereas the phase ...

Torsional vibrations and resonance problems with synchronous machines are most frequently encountered in rotor systems with long shafts and large inertias constituting a weakly damped mechanical resonator which exhibits a low resonance frequency. It is impossible to obtain a effective mechanical damping for these torsional vibrations, but by using a power electronics device and an inductive or ...

The d-dimensional string generated gravity models lead to Einstein-Maxwell equations with quadratic order correction term called the Gauss-Bonnet term. We calculate the quasinormal modes for the d-dimensional charged black hole in the framework of this model. The quasinormal spectrum essentially depends upon the Gauss-Bonnet coupling parameter α which is related to the string scale, and is tota...

Oscillations in the electrical parameters elicited by Li+ added to the mucosal side of frog skin in vitro were studied under different experimental conditions. The correlation between the damping coefficient and the size of the externally injected current was ascertained. The size of the overall epithelial resistance in NaCl-Ringer seems to be a good indicator of the qualitative behaviour of th...

This study applies a neural-network-based optimal TCSC controller for damping oscillations. Optimal neural network controller is related to model-reference adaptive control, the network controller is developed based on the recursive “pseudo-linear regression”. Problem statement: The optimal NN controller is designed to damp out the low frequency local and inter-area oscillations of the large po...

this paper presents a new modified shuffled frog leaping algorithm (msfla) applied to design simultaneous coordinated tuning of damping controllers to damp the power system low frequency oscillations. for this, a new frog leaping rule is proposed to improve the local exploration and performance of the original sfla and the genetic mutation operator is employed for new frog generation instead of...
