CAREER: Suppression of Low-Frequency Oscillations in Power Systems and Electric Drives: A Dissipativity Approach

9502636斯坦科维奇这个研究项目将在耗散动力系统的背景下探索电力系统和电力驱动的动力学。这类系统与非线性电路理论之间的有趣联系在过去已经建立，而与稳健控制设计的联系则是非常新的起源。在这个框架中可以解决电力系统和电力传动中的许多感兴趣的控制问题，并且人们认为扩展(例如，对于非线性周期系统)也是可行的。这种方法的一个显著特点是，它深深植根于机电能量转换的物理过程。这可以与从选定的理论框架开始，然后寻找框架可能被证明成功的应用领域的方法形成对比。由第二种方法产生的设计工具通常是保守的，并且与设计者的工程直觉分离。***

9502636 Stankovic This research project will explore the dynamics of power systems and electric drives in the context of dissipative dynamical systems. Interesting connections between this class of systems and the theory of nonlinear electrical circuits have been established in the past while links to robust control design are of a very recent origin. Many control questions of interest for power systems and electric drives can be addressed in this framework, and it is felt that extensions (e.g. for the class of nonlinear periodic systems) are also feasible. One distinctive feature of the intended approach is that it is deeply rooted in the physical processes underlying electromechanical energy conversion. This can be contrasted with the approach that starts from a chosen theoretical framework, and then looks for an application area in which the framework could prove successful. Design tools resulting from this second approach are often conservative, and decoupled from the designer's engineering intuition. ***
