this paper works on the concept of flatness and its practical application for the design of an optimal transient controller in a synchronous machine. the feedback linearization scheme of interest requires the generation of a flat output from which the feedback control law can easily be designed. thus the computation of the flat output for reduced order model of the synchronous machine with simp...

Ab3tractOnline transient stability assessment (TSA) of a power system is not yet feasible due to the intensive computation involved. Artificial neural networks(ANN) have been proposed as one of the approaches to this problem because of its ability to quickly map nonlinear relationships between the input data and the output. In this paper a review of the previously. published papers on TSA using...

As power systems become increasingly stability constrained, the need for dynamic security assessment (DSA) becomes important. However, the resources and technology required to achieve on-line DSA at reasonable cost for utility companies are not easily come by. Therefore, an offline method is needed to examine and screen all likely contingencies to determine those that may lead to instability. S...

On-line Transient Stability Assessment (TSA) is challenging task due to the large number of variables involved and continuously varying operating conditions. This study proposes an on-line transient stability assessment methodology based on the predicted values of generator rotor angles under varying operating conditions for predefined contingency set through Radial Basis Function Neural Networ...

Transient Stability Assessment (TSA) is essentially important since recent blackout in northern India turns most of the research people towards dynamic security. Transient stability is inherently a Differential-Algebraic equation which is needed to be tackled by an effective method. So, Time Domain Approach is implied in solving TSA.The main objective of this paper is to determine accurate Crit...
