An application of chaos and bifurcation in nonlinear dynamical power systems

In this article, a nonlinear dynamical phenomena leading to bifurcation and chaos in power systems is explored using a sample power system. After giving an introduction to nonlinear dynamical power systems in section II a basic knowledge to nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory is given. Section III deals with bifurcation theory. In section IV a dynamical power system model has examined. In section V the theories are applied to a sample power system example and various bifurcation and chaotic phenomena are examined. The predicted behavior is verified by simulations using MATLAB tools.
