Considering its significance in power system security, it is important to propose a novel approach for enhancing the transient stability, considering uncertainties. Current deterministic industry practices of transient stability assessment ignore the probabilistic nature of variables. Moreover, the time-domain simulation approach for transient stability evaluation can be very computationally intensive, especially for a large-scale system. The impact of wind penetration on transient stability is critical to investigate, as it does not possess the inherent inertia of synchronous generators. Thus, this paper proposes a risk-based, machine learning decision-making approach, for probabilistic transient stability enhancement, by replacing circuit breakers, including the impact of wind generation. The IEEE 14-bus test system was used to test and validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. DIgSILENT PowerFactory and MATLAB were utilised for transient stability simulations (for obtaining training data for machine learning), and applying machine learning algorithms, respectively.","PeriodicalId":34935,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering","volume":"115 1","pages":"106 - 121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87760257","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 conventional approaches, such as, time-domain simulation approach and direct method (based on Lyapunov function and transient energy function), to estimate the transient stability are not appropriate for online application, as they suffer from various drawbacks of large computation time (time-domain simulation) and delivering approximate results (direct method). The field of machine learning and soft computing provides a good alternative to the conventional approaches, for transient stability evaluation. Thus, this paper aims to discuss the application of support vector machine (SVM) for predicting the probabilistic transient stability. DIgSILENT PowerFactory was utilised for conducting time-domain simulations (to obtain the training data), and MATLAB was used for support vector regression (SVR) training. For the SVR model, fault type, fault location, fault clearing time, and system load were chosen as the predictors and the transient stability index (TSI) was used as the response. Various regression metrics were computed, for the IEEE 14-bus system, to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The results obtained verify the efficiency of the proposed approach and provide a great potential to be applied for online dynamic security assessment (DSA).","PeriodicalId":34935,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering","volume":"2 1","pages":"35 - 49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88660254","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}

Jitter is measured in terms of the difference between a minimum and a maximum value of delay. A large and unaccounted for, value of delay jitter is a problem for some time sensitive applications, for example, real-time audio/video. Delay Jitter is eliminated in some applications by the delayed-playback approach. But this approach requires that the maximum and minimum packets’ delay of a flow should be known in advance. However, it is challenging to a priori know a flow’s minimum and maximum packets’ delays. In this paper, the derivation of simple, practically applicable formulas that can be used to compute the minimum and maximum packets’ delays of a flow, with a view to accounting for, and mitigating the effects of delays’ jitters is reported. The maximum delay value that is obtained with the formulas is compared with three maximum delay values of models that were reported in the literature. The comparison indicates that the formulas that are reported in this paper are superior in terms of practical reality and applicability.","PeriodicalId":34935,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering","volume":"27 1","pages":"27 - 34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74057156","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}

Furthermore, since faults are inevitable, efforts can only be made to minimise those damages by improving the FCLs.

In this paper, a failure risk prediction of power distribution network method based on particle swarm optimisation and extreme gradient boosting tree algorithm is proposed. The local weather data is fed into the model, outputting the failure severity and probability of the area in the same period. The case study shows that our proposed method relieves the low accuracy problem by introducing the particle swarm optimisation algorithm to search the optimal values of critical parameters. On the testing dataset, the accuracy of our method reaches 96.19%, showing that our model can efficiently evaluate the risk level of the distribution network working conditions. Moreover, the algorithm can extract the association rules between the weather features and the failure risk levels, offering the data support for the failure risk prevention of the distribution network under severe weather.","PeriodicalId":34935,"journal":{"name":"Australian Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering","volume":"5 25","pages":"371 - 378"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72396905","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}
