  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.

  2. 2. Power Electronics for Mitigation of Voltage Sags and Improved Control of AC Power Systems

    Author : Marcio Magalhães de Oliveira; KTH; []
    Keywords : power electronics; power quality; voltage sags; voltage-source converters; Custom Power; FACTS; real-time simulations; solid-state devices;

    Abstract : The thesis deals with the application of compensators andswitches based on power electronics in AC transmission anddistribution systems. The objective of the studieddevices/equipment is the power flow and voltage control intransmission systems and the mitigation of voltage sags andmomentary interruptions to critical loads in distributionsystems.
