Stochastic Dynamics of Power Systems

This book discusses stochastic dynamics of power systems and the related analytical methodology. It summarizes and categorizes the stochastic elements of power systems and develops a framework for research on stochastic dynamics of power systems. It also establishes a research model for stochastic dynamics of power systems and theoretically proves stochastic stability in power systems. Further, in addition to demonstrating the stochastic oscillation mechanism in power systems, it also proposes methods for quantitative analysis and stochastic optimum control in the field of stochastic dynamic security in power systems. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, scholars and engineers in the field of electrics.

Ping Ju is a scholar at the German Humboldt University and has been awarded the People’s Republic of China’s prize for outstanding young scientists. He received his bachelor’s degree from Southeast University in July 1982 and his master’s degree in May 1985, both in Electric Systems and Automation. In June 1988, Ping Ju obtained his doctor’s degree in Electric Systems and Automation from Zhejiang University. Afterwards, he became a lecturer at Hohai University.
