Slow Coherency Identification and Power System Dynamic Model Reduction by using Orthogonal Structure of Electromechanical Eigenvectors

Identifying generator coherency with respect to slow oscillatory modes has numerous power system use cases including dynamic model reduction, dynamic security analysis, or system integrity protection schemes (e.g., power system islanding). Despite their popularity in both research and industry, classic eigenvector-based slow coherency techniques...

Discovering Clusters in Power Networks from Orthogonal Structure of Spectral Embedding

This paper presents an integrated approach to partition similarity graphs, the task that arises in various contexts in power system studies. The approach is based on orthogonal transformation of row-normalized eigenvectors obtained from spectral clustering to closely fit the axes of the canonical coordinate system. We select the number of...
