About the book:
Computational Methods for
Electric Power Systems introduces
computational methods that form the basis of many analytical studies in power
systems. The book provides the background for a number of widely used
algorithms that underlie several commercial software packages, linking concepts
to power system applications. By understanding the theory behind many of the
algorithms, the reader can make better use of the software and make more
informed decisions (e.g., choice of integration method and step size in
simulation packages).
This Third
Edition contains new material on preconditioners for
linear iterative methods, Broyden’s method, and Jacobian-free Newton–Krylov
methods. It includes additional problems and examples, as well as updated
examples on sparse lower-upper (LU) factorization. It also adds coverage of the
eigensystem realization algorithm and the double-shift method for computing
complex eigenvalues. |
