It is apparent that perturbations of the North American electric power grid follow the patterns and characteristics of Self Organized Critical (SOC) systems. Published studies sho...
The potential uses of the sub-second GPSsynchronized phasor data collected from various locations within an electric power system promise endless benefits for the applications tar...
A power grid is a complex system connecting electric power generators to consumers through power transmission and distribution networks across a large geographical area. System mo...
