Development of biomimetic control strategies for the optimal use of renewable sources and energy storage systems

Creator:: Hapke, Hannes Max
Abstract:: In the year 2007, the worldwide energy consumption accumulated to a total of 16.5 billion MWh. While the resources of conventional energy production cause environmental damage, renewable energy sources like solar or wind power offer a solution to substitute for coal or nuclear generated power. Countries like Denmark and Spain...

Dynamic modeling and mitigation of cascading failure in power systems

Creator:: Song, Jiajia
Abstract:: Recent blackout events consistently show that a variety of mechanisms are involved in cascading outages. These cascading mechanisms are irregularly modeled and validated within the existing literature and industry practices. Understanding the relative significance of these different mechanisms is important for choosing which one(s) needs to be modeled for specific...
