  1. 1. Control Lyapunov Functions : A Control Strategy for Damping of Power Oscillations in Large Power Systems

    Author : Mehrdad Ghandhari; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; UPFC; CSC; QBT; Lyapunov function; Control Lyapunov Function; SIME; Sliding mode; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : In the present climate of deregulation and privatisation, theutilities are often separated into generation, transmission anddistribution companies so as to help promote economic efficiencyand encourage competition. Also, environmental concerns,right-of-way and cost problems have delayed the construction ofboth generation facilities and new transmission lines while thedemand for electric power has continued to grow, which must bemet by increased loading of available lines.

    Abstract : This thesis is an effort to investigate the operation and the performanceof modular multilevel converters (M2Cs). Proven to be the most promisingtopology in high-voltage high-power applications, it is necessary to put aneffort in understanding the physical laws that govern the internal dynamicsof such converters, in order to design appropriate control methods.

  5. 5. Analysis and Design of Hybrid Systems

    Author : Stefan Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; asymptotic stability; Lyapunov theory; exponential stability; piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions; hybrid systems; stability; linear matrix inequalities; nonlinear systems; LMIs; control theory; fuzzy systems;

    Abstract : Many physical systems today are modeled by interacting continuous and discrete event systems. Such hybrid systems contain both continuous and discrete states that influence the dynamic behavior. READ MORE
