First, some necessary background theories on nonlinear dynamic system and small signal stability region are briefly reviewed. Then, we present an example that there exists a hole (instability region) inside the small signal stability region. Theoretical study is performed to find the cause of this phenomenon based on bifurcation analysis. It is found that occurrence of the hole in the small signal stability region is caused by a 2-order degenerated Hopf bifurcation, while breaking of the hole is caused by concurrence of two Hopf bifurcations.

While the presently used common practice is to disconnected the wind turbines from the grid immediately when a fault occurs somewhere in the grid, in the future the wind turbines may be required to stay connected longer and ride through the part or the whole fault transient(s). To achieve easier grid integration and reliable voltage control, active control of wind turbines is becoming an area of increasing importance. This paper presents a computer model of a multi-turbine wind energy system that is based on the candidate wind farm site on Vancouver Island, Canada. A new voltage control scheme is proposed and compared to the traditional modes of the wind turbine operation.

The QUA process was designed and implemented as an interim measure and depends heavily on inefficient manual procedures that produce volatile results. Along with the requirements for and characteristics of a permanent award process, the QUA process and the new IARR process are discussed and compared.

An impedance element model was developed with components associated with the current collection grid, the active plate materials, the electrolyte, and the self discharge. Model elements may be approximated as resistors and capacitors, however some of the values of capacitor and resistor elements vary as a function of load current or state of charge. Constant current charge and discharge tests provided baseline characteristics. Element values were determined using data from self discharge and pulse test cycles.

The first matrix is Clarke's matrix that is real, frequency independent, easily represented in computational transient programs (EMTP) and separates the line into quasi-modes alpha, beta and zero. After that, quasi-modes alpha and zero are decomposed into their exact modes by using a modal transformation matrix whose elements can be synthesized in time domain through standard curve-fitting techniques. The main advantage of this alternative representation is to reduce the processing time because a frequency dependent modal transformation matrix of a three-phase line has nine elements to be represented in time domain while a modal transformation matrix of a two-phase line has only four elements.
