Future combinations of plasmonics with nanometer-sized electronic circuits require strategies to control the electrical excitation of plasmons at the length scale of individual molecules. A unique tool to study the electrical plasmon excitation with ultimate resolution is scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Inelastic tunnel processes generate plasmons in the tunnel gap that partially radiate i...

This paper describes the application of static var compensators, (SVC) on an electrical distribution network containing two large synchronous motors, one of which is excited via a three-phase thyristor bridge rectifier. The second machine is excited via a diode bridge rectifier. Based on linear optimization control (LOC), the measurable feedback signals are applied to the control system loops o...

The self-excitation process in pulsed air-core rotating generators is fundamental in assuring record values of power density and compactness. This paper will analyze the conditions for the self-excitation process in pulsed electrical machines used as power supplies for electromagnetic launchers, using the analogy and methods of the positive feedback in control systems. In the classical “ferroma...

this paper proposes a novel approach for coherent generators online clustering in a large power system following a wide area disturbance. an interconnected power system may become unstable due to severe contingency when it is operated close to the stability boundaries. hence, the bulk power system controlled islanding is the last resort to prevent catastrophic cascading outages and wide area bl...
