Robust And Intelligent Control Methods To Improve The Performance Of A Unified Power Flow Controller, C Benachaiba, Ahmed M. Haidar, M L. Doumbia Jan 2011

Robust And Intelligent Control Methods To Improve The Performance Of A Unified Power Flow Controller, C Benachaiba, Ahmed M. Haidar, M L. Doumbia

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part A

The important factor disturbing the modern power systems today is load flow control. The Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is an effective way for controlling the power flow and can provide damping capability during transient conditions. The UPFC is controlled conventionally using PI controller. This paper presents two robust controllers to improve the performance of the UPFC. The first is a RST controller based on the principle of pole placement and the second is an intelligent controller based on the principle of fuzzy logic optimized by Genetic Algorithm (GA).


A Case Study In Forensic Analysis Of Control, Fred Cohen Jan 2011

A Case Study In Forensic Analysis Of Control, Fred Cohen

Journal of Digital Forensics, Security and Law

This paper describes a case study in which a method for forensic analysis of control was applied to resolve probative technical issues in a legal action. It describes one instance in which the analysis was successfully applied without challenge, addresses the details of most of the different facets of the analysis method, and demonstrates how such analysis provides a systematic approach to using technical methods to address legal issues as a case study.
