There is some evidence that people have biased perceptions of risks, such as lethal or environmental risks. Hence their behavior is based on beliefs which may di¤er from the ’objective’ beliefs used by a regulator. The optimal regulation then depends on this di¤erence in beliefs. We set up a general framework and study this policy change. It turns out that, in many situations, the policy change...

This paper presents a particle swarm optimization (PSO) for reactive power and voltage control (Volt/Var Control: VVC) in electric power systems considering voltage security. VVC can be formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problem (MINLP). The proposed method expands the original PSO to handle a MINLP and determines an on-line VVC strategy with continuous and discrete control va...

of the Thesis Fully Integrated Hybrid Voltage Regulator for Low Voltage Applications by Yongwan Park Master of Science in Electrical Engineering Stony Brook University 2016 A novel hybrid regulator topology is proposed to alleviate the weaknesses of existing hybrid topologies. Contrary to the dominant existing practice, a switchedcapacitor converter and a resistorless LDO operate in a parallel ...

The parallel operation of voltage regulator modules (VRMs) for high-end microprocessors requires a current-sharing (CS) circuit to provide a uniform load distribution among the modules. A good dynamic performance of the CS circuit is very important since the microprocessors present highly dynamic loads to the VRMs. Stability and dynamic performance of the CS control are considered. To assess th...

In this note, we first show that Theorem 2 in the above paper is incorrect. Then, we also show that Theorem 1 is not enough to support the claim in the above paper that the proportional-integral sliding mode control method is more robust than the linear quadratic regulator method when applying on the active suspension system with mismatched uncertainties. © 2006 Published by Elsevier B.V.

The transient stabilization and voltage regulation problem for a synchronous generator connected to an infinite bus is addressed, in this article, the presence of all uncertain physical parameters. First, new interpretations desensitized four loops regulator, here referred as robust coordinated power system stabilizer automatic regulator (PSS-AVR) are derived terms minimum phase properties with...
