In this comprehensive and systematically presented text, the various aspects of modern power system operation and control are discussed. Covered in the volume are: computer configurations and control aids, load-frequency control and automatic generation c ontrol, reactive power planning and scheduling procedure, security monitoring, and control under emergency conditions. Also presented are case study reports on power grid failures in different countries, examining how they occurred, how they were handled, and what lessons that they can provide. A "defence" plan against similar major disturbances is detailed, including the overall system architecture adopted and the processing and communication sub-systems.
Adaptive Voltage Control in Power Systems, a self-contained blend of theory and novel application, offers in-depth treatment of such adaptive control schemes. Coverage moves from power-system-modelling problems through illustrations of the main adaptive control systems, including self-tuning, model-reference and nonlinearities compensation to a detailed description of design methods: Kalman filtering, parameter-identification algorithms and discrete-time controller design are all represented. Case studies address applications issues in the implementation of adaptive voltage control.
The series Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage technology transfer in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology impacts all areas of the control discipline. New theory, new controllers, actuators, sensors, new industrial processes, computer methods, new applications, new philosophies ... , new challenges. Much of this development work resides in industrial reports, feasibility study papers and the reports of advanced collaborative projects. The series offers an opportunity for researchers to present an extended exposition of such new work in all aspects of industrial control for wider and rapid dissemination. In Europe, and soon in the United St...

L’ascesa dei Visconti e la sconfitta dei Torriani Era una fredda notte del 21 gennaio 1277 quando una folta schiera d’armati, sui cui stendardi garriva la biscia viscontea, faceva inaspettatamente irruzione all’interno della cerchia murata del villaggio fortificato di Desio. A guidare gli incursori vi era l’arcivescovo di Milano Ottone Visconti, deciso a chiudere definitivamente la partita con i guelfi Torriani, signori, fino a quel momento, di Milano. Sebbene la battaglia si risolvesse in una serie di violenti scontri lungo le vie e le piazze cittadine, senza avere un preciso andamento tattico, la contesa notturna vedrà, una volta per tutte, il trionfo del partito ghibellino guidat...
