Both systems are nonconservative. One has a quadratic nonlinearity in the response terms and the other has a cubic nonlinearity. The exact general solutions are shown to involve a definite integral with respect to one dependent variable holding the other fixed. The unconventional nature of these integrals does not detract from their potential value. Instead, it shows very clearly why some conventional tools fail to produce results when applied to such systems.","PeriodicalId":260036,"journal":{"name":"1993 (25th) Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121739919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A new time-domain load modeling technique that is based on actual recorded steady state power system measurements is presented, and the incorporation of the load model developed into a harmonic load flow program that is based on the bus admittance matrix method is shown. The load model is perfectly general and can be used to model linear or nonlinear loads in the presence or absence of harmonic distortion. Since the model is based on physically realizable network elements, several harmonic-related problems can be addressed using the suggested approach. The problem of power factor correction in the presence of harmonics and distortion is used as an example to show the efficacy of the method.","PeriodicalId":260036,"journal":{"name":"1993 (25th) Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"143 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124560933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The algorithm is developed employing the techniques of the multidimensional Winograd Fourier transform algorithm (WFTA). It is found that an interesting relationship exists between the quadrantal and diagonal symmetries when the length of the data along each axis is odd. This implies that from one set of symmetry-based WFTA, the other set can be obtained, and the mapping is one-to-one. This idea is formulated, and the single planar diagonal symmetry-based WFTA is derived from single planar quadrantally symmetric WFTA.","PeriodicalId":260036,"journal":{"name":"1993 (25th) Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133403403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three different filtering techniques and a lightly damped dynamic system are used to illustrate boundaries specified by the convergence criterion. The filtering techniques in this study are the modified extended Kalman filter, the decoupled Kalman filter, and a pseudolinear regression filter. The extended Kalman filter is shown to converge once it identifies the appropriate decoupling of states and parameters. The decoupled Kalman filter provides a much cleaner convergence but has the standard computational burden of the Kalman filter as well as possible convergence problems. The pseudolinear regression algorithm provides excellent convergence with a much more computationally compatible and time-sensitive algorithm.","PeriodicalId":260036,"journal":{"name":"1993 (25th) Southeastern Symposium on System Theory","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131214166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
