Voltage-Sourced Converters in Power Systems
Presents Fundamentals of Modeling, Analysis, and Control of Electric Power Converters for Power System ApplicationsElectronic (static) power conversion has gained widespread acceptance in power systems applications; electronic power converters are increasingly employed for power conversion and conditioning, compensation, and active filtering. This book presents the fundamentals for analysis and control of a specific class of high-power electronic converters—the three-phase voltage-sourced converter (VSC). Voltage-Sourced Converters in Power Systems provides a necessary and unprecedented link between the principles of operation and the applications of voltage-sourced converters. The book: Describes various functions that the VSC can perform in electric power systems Covers a wide range of applications of the VSC in electric power systems—including wind power conversion systems Adopts a systematic approach to the modeling and control design problems Illustrates the control design procedures and expected performance based on a comprehensive set of examples and digital computer time-domain simulation studiesThis comprehensive text presents effective techniques for mathematical modeling and control design, and helps readers understand the procedures and analysis steps. Detailed simulation case studies are included to highlight the salient points and verify the designs. Voltage-Sourced Converters in Power Systems is an ideal reference for senior undergraduate and graduate students in power engineering programs, practicing engineers who deal with grid integration and operation of distributed energy resource units, design engineers, and researchers in the area of electric power generation, transmission, distribution, and utilization.

Preview repetitive control with equivalent input disturbance for continuous‐time linear systems
This paper investigates the problem of preview repetitive control with equivalent‐input‐disturbance for a class of continuous‐time linear systems in the presence of unknown external disturbances. First, an augmented delay system is constructed by using the nominal state equation with error system and the state equation of a modified repetitive controller, which is then transformed into a non‐delayed one by state transformation. Next, by using optimal control theory, a preview repetitive control law is obtained. It is composed of state feedback, tracking error compensation, output of modified repetitive controller and preview compensation. Furthermore, in order to achieve a good disturbance estimation and attenuation performance, by applying the results of the standard equivalent‐input‐disturbance theory, a preview repetitive control law with equivalent‐input‐disturbance is offered for the uncertain system with unknown external disturbance. Finally, the numerical simulation example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Command and Control: The Sociotechnical Perspective
Military command and control is not merely evolving, it is co-evolving. Technology is creating new opportunities for different types of command and control, and new types of command and control are creating new aspirations for technology. The question is how to manage this process, how to achieve a jointly optimised blend of socio and technical and create the kind of agility and self-synchronisation that modern forms of command and control promise. The answer put forward in this book is to re-visit sociotechnical systems theory. In doing so, the problems of 21st century command and control can be approached from an alternative, multi-disciplinary and above all human-centred perspective.
