A Stability Theory for DAE Systems

 

 

 

                          

 

A mathematically precise and physically meaningful theoretical basis for system stability for general nonlinear systems modeled by differential-algebraic equations has been developed.  Problems in both angle and voltage stability for the large electric power system provide the practical background for this work.  This research analyzes the system incorporating as much as possible practically relevant constraints while staying true to the physical nature of the underlying processes and the inherent limitations of approximations in modeling (quasi-stationarity and phasor calculus for electric power systems). This research was performed in collaboration with J. Zaborsky, V. Venkatasubramanian (the main contributor), X. Jin and K. Kim
