Wang, D. (author), Rueda, José L. (author), Rakhshani, E. (author), van der Meijden, M.A.M.M. (author)Unlike synchronous generators, wind turbines cannot directly respond to large disturbances, which may cause transient instability, due to their power electronic-based interface and maximum power control strategy. To effectively monitor the influence of wind turbines, this paper proposes an approach that combines decision trees (DTs), and a...journal article 2020
