This webinar was presented by Dr. Thomas Overbye, Texas A&M University on June 2, 2021 at 3 pm CDT. Abstract: For decades, modal analysis has been used in power system analysis to assess small signal stability. Traditionally, this has been done using model-based eigenvalue analysis. More recently measurement-based techniques have emerged and are now widely …
NAPS 2021 is currently accepting paper submissions. Submit a Paper The IEEE Power and Energy Society and the Texas A&M University Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering are pleased to invite the submission of full-length papers (IEEE conference format, 6-page limit) to the 53rd annual North American Power Symposium (NAPS 2021). NAPS is a student-centered …
Speakers: Yanzhi Ann Xu (Texas Transportation Institute) and Komal Shetye (Texas A&M University) Abstract: The increasing proliferation of electric vehicles (EVs) is invariably increasing the coupling between two complex and critical infrastructure networks– the power grid and transportation systems. There has been a lot of research done in modeling EVs as loads in distribution grids, to evaluate …
Speakers: Dr. B. Don Russell, Mr. Carl Benner, Jeffrey Wischkaemper, and Karthick Manivannan (Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, TAMU) Abstract: Electric power distribution circuits are rigorously built to require little maintenance or inspection. Yet failures do occur leading to outages and unsafe conditions. It has long been known that periodic inspections offer only marginal improvements in …
This webinar was presented by Dr. Thomas Overbye, Texas A&M University. Abstract: Except for a brief time around 1970, the North American Eastern and Western grids have operated asynchronously from each other, with power transfers only possible through a few back-to-back HVDC ties. However a recent study has shown that an AC interconnection may be …
The 53rd North American Power Symposium will be held at Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, from November, 14—16, 2021. NAPS, a student-centric conference, has been bringing together students, faculty, and researchers in the power and energy systems area since its inception in 1969. The purpose of this symposium is to provide a forum for …
The course is designed to provide state-of-the-art introduction of data science and machine learning that is tailored for power engineering applications. The electricity industry is transforming itself from a hierarchical, passive, and sparsely-sensed engineering system into a flat, active, and ubiquitously-sensed cyber-physical system. The emerging multi-scale data from synchrophasors, smart meters, weather, and electricity markets …
In this talk, the speaker, Dr. Kate Davis, will present a briefing on our Cyber-Physical Resilient Energy Systems (CYPRES) project funded by the US Department of Energy Cyber Security for Energy Delivery Systems (DOE-CEDS) program. The vision of CYPRES is a cyber-physical energy management system that would allow the energy system to be modeled and …
The large grid of high-voltage transmission lines and transformers that forms part of a bulk electric power delivery system can be characterized by a number of metrics from graph theory, network science, computational geometry, and engineering analysis. Example metrics include the distribution of the number of links connected to each node, the length of the …
