ECSE 522 — Nonlinear Phenomena in Power Systems Dynamics

Introduces nonlinear dynamics, with applications to generic engineering and power engineering. Topics include one- and two- dimensional systems; bifurcations; phase plane; nonlinear oscillators; Lorenz equations and chaos. Emphasizes power system dynamic modelling and stability. Topics include synchronous machine dynamic modelling; numerical integration methods for dynamic simulations; excitation system and turbine governor; transient stability; small signal stability; voltage stability; nonlinear dynamics and bifurcations in power system dynamic study.
