Abstract :
Motivation for alternate designs of electrical generators and steam turbines used in electrical power systems is presented. This motivation stems from a proposed concept in nonlinear suboptimal control that could enhance power system reliability and stability and lessen the demand for the construction of new and costly electrical power generating facilities. The proposed methods could also be applicable to wind generation systems
