El Helou, Rayan Sami (2023-07-05)Modern power systems are witnessing a proliferation of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) such as renewables, energy storage systems, electric vehicles, demand response entities and more, on both supply and demand sides. ...
-
Clark, Angelica (2017-12-05)This research proposes a weak grid detection method that is a steady state screening method to identify clusters of buses where potential coordinated voltage oscillations could occur. The objectives of this method are to ...
-
Li, Shuo (2016-11-18)In this dissertation, we study two network problems using matrices as our primary analysis tools. First, the limits of treating interference as noise are studied for the canonical two-user symmetric Gaussian interference ...
-
Ko, Woo Hyun (2017-08-30)In this thesis, we address issues related to middleware, architecture and applications of cyber-physical systems. The first problem we address is the cross-layer design of cyber-physical systems to cope with interactions ...
-
Torres, Jonathan Farina (2014-05-19)Many times it is necessary to reorient an aerial vehicle during flight in a minimum time or minimum fuel fashion. This thesis will present a minimum time/fuel control solution to reorienting an axisymmetric rigid body using ...
-
Aimone, Connor (2014-09-18)Integration of renewable power generation has emerged as a critical challenge facing electric power systems. Increasing the penetration of such energy sources, while maintaining stability, will require creative solutions ...
-
Lv, Dan (2017-08-01)Large-scale cascading failures can be triggered by very few initial failures, leading to severe damages in complex networks. As modern society becomes more and more networked, there is an increasing requirement of security ...
-
Chanda, Suraj (2012-10-19)There are many calamitous events such as earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis etc. that occur suddenly and cause great loss of life, damage, or hardship. Hurricanes cause significant damage to power distribution systems, ...
-
Rondla, Preethi 1988- (2012-10-26)All generation facilities have to report their generator un-availabilities to their respective Independent System Operators (ISOs). The un-availability of a generator is determined in terms of its probability of ...
-
Lee, Ki Yeob (2021-07-28)The thesis addresses challenges in multi-agent systems in which they consist of multiple autonomous agents where they may have different information and/or different interests in a shared environment. Most, if not all, ...
-
Zhou, Yuqi (2018-05-02)Electric power systems have changed rapidly these years with the integration of smart grid technologies as well as the development of control and computing techniques. After the deregulation of modern power systems, operation ...
-
Zhao, Tao (2019-07-16)More and more heterogeneous devices are getting connected to the Internet, leading us to the era of Internet of Things. However, this trend is hardly sustainable under today's Internet, because of the inefficiency of IP ...
-
Deng, Han (2017-07-28)Online algorithms are used to solve the problems which need to make decisions without future knowledge. Competitive ratio is used to evaluate the performance of an online algorithm. This ratio is the worst-case ratio between ...
-
On Price Responsive Consumer Behavior in Electricity Markets: to Machina Economicus from Homo Agens An, Jaeyong (2019-12-02)The electricity power market is well known for its highly volatile nature due to its innate variability characteristic of demand and the absence of practical bulk storage at reasonable cost. Any discordance between rapid ...
-
Wiseman, Benjamin P (2015-09-29)Power system dynamics are becoming increasingly complex, as new interconnections are made between systems and more power from renewable resources is integrated into the electric grid. As a result, assessing and maintaining ...
-
Mayhorn, Ebony T (2015-08-09)This dissertation investigates the problem of optimally coordinating distributed energy resources (DERs) in isolated power systems. It is motivated by the recent efforts worldwide of integrating large amounts of renewable ...
-
Sharma, Gaurav (2016-07-22)We consider a smart microgrid environment where renewable power sources like wind generators are available to service the thermal inertial load along with conventional non-renewable energy sources. The flexibility in power ...
-
Yan, Qin (2018-11-27)The focus of this Dissertation is on developing an optimal management of what is called the “Integrated Electric Vehicle Charging Station” (IEVCS) comprising the charging stations for the Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs), ...
-
Huang, Tong (2017-03-28)In this thesis, a strategy for phasor measurement unit (PMU) optimal placement and signal selection is proposed for monitoring critical oscillations in electric power systems. A robust indicator, mode in output proportion ...
-
Plesa, Dakota JamesEnergy is one of the most hotly discussed topics of the modern age. One segment of these discussions is devoted to the environmental impact of energy production and consumption. The second segment of this discussion pertains ...
