The effective operation of power systems in the present and the future depends to a large extent on how well several emerging challenges are met today. Power systems are experiencing increasing stress as they are operated in many instances at or near their full capacities. At the same, addition of new transmission lines to relieve this stress is often very difficult and is mired in slow regulatory procedures. The blackout on August 14th, 2003 in the Northeastern US clearly showed that the stressed power system is clearly vulnerable to cascading failures and can result in widespread outages that can affect millions of people and bring modern day life to a stand still. This two-day workshop will bring together invited speakers whose research interests lie in the areas of power system dynamics and control associated with the analysis of large disturbances in power systems. Intellectual merit: This workshop will: one, create a venue in which engaging discussions among researchers can take place; two, present new research ideas in understanding and preventing cascading outages in power systems; and three, outline the challenges and future research needs in this area. Broader impact: The workshop funded by this proposal will generate technical issues for research relating to preventing cascading outages in large power systems. This is a topic of critical importance to the economic viability of the nation. The results of this workshop will identify new directions for research to harden the electric supply system and improve the reliability.

电力系统在当前和未来的有效运行在很大程度上取决于如何以及一些新出现的挑战，满足今天。电力系统正经历着越来越大的压力，因为它们在许多情况下以满负荷或接近满负荷运行。与此同时，增加新的输电线路来缓解这种压力往往非常困难，并且陷入缓慢的监管程序。2003年8月14日发生在美国东北部的停电事件清楚地表明，受压的电力系统显然容易受到连锁故障的影响，并可能导致大范围停电，影响数百万人，使现代生活陷入停顿。 这个为期两天的研讨会将邀请演讲者，他们的研究兴趣在于与电力系统大扰动分析相关的电力系统动态和控制领域。智力优点：该讲习班将：第一，创造一个场所，在其中从事研究人员之间的讨论可以发生; 2，提出新的研究思路，在理解和防止电力系统的连锁停电; 3，概述了在这一领域的挑战和未来的研究需求。更广泛的影响：由该提案资助的讲习班将产生与防止大型电力系统连锁停电有关的研究的技术问题。这是一个对国家的经济活力至关重要的问题。这次研讨会的成果将为加强供电系统和提高可靠性的研究确定新的方向。
