  • Abstract
    Time-optimal settling of a synchronous generator following a step disturbance was studied. The problem was solved by iterative analog computation using a modified gradient strategy. The surface, whose minimum was sought by the gradient method, was investigated and found to have lines of discontinuity that make automatic minimum finding difficult.
