This paper discusses the application of Fractional order PI controlled Static synchronous compensator for improvement rotor angle stability of inter connected power system. FACTS Controllers plays important role in enhancing the power system stability.Besides improving the stability margin of the power system it also aids the damping of inter area power oscillations. In the present work STATCOM is connected in multimachine power system .The dynamic response of the STATCOM is controlled by using fractional order controllers.The controller gains of the fractional controller are tuned by using PSO algorithm.It gives acceptable solutions to continuous non-linear systems with less computational effort. The performance of the proposed controller has been compared with integer order PI controllers at different locations of fault. In this paper a 3 machine 9 bus WSSC test power system is considered and simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK.

In order to deeply explore the transient stability mechanism of the AC/DC hybrid system, this paper analyzes the rotor angle stability of the two-area AC/DC hybrid system. The system is analyzed after subjecting it to large disturbances in the AC system and for different operating conditions, qualitatively and quantitatively. The influence of factors, such as the AC operating point of the system and the proportion of DC transmission power, have been considered for improving the rotor motion equation. Subsequently, the transient characteristics of the hybrid system are analyzed after being subjected to disturbances. The power angle stability margin index is obtained, based on which the transient characteristics after DC blocking are analyzed, and the coordinated control strategy with the least control cost is proposed. The results are verified using the two-area AC/DC parallel transmission system network model. The study provides the reference for ensuring the security and stability of the hybrid AC/DC power grid.

Abstract The tip-over instability of an autonomous mobile robot is a significant problem as it can diminish its maneuverability and increase the possibility of damaging the robot and its surrounding environment. For these reasons, it is important to define the stability margin and predict the edge of the tip-over instability considering different robot specifications and environmental conditions. Different stability measures have been developed to evaluate and analyze robot stability margins for diverse conditions. In this work, the Zero Moment Point, Energy Stability Margin, Force-Angle Stability Measure, and Mass-Moment Height Stability Measure methods are considered and applied to different mobile robot architectures including three-wheeled, four-wheeled (with rectangular and trapezoidal base surface) and articulated systems. The stability margins are discussed considering the four different stability criteria and evaluating the effect of a sloped surface. Then, the sensitivity of the tip-over instability in relation to the variation of the center of mass height as an important robot configuration parameter is evaluated. Finally, after a theoretical extension of the Force-Angle Stability and Mass-Moment Height stability measurement methods, the articulated mobile robot’s stability margin is considered and evaluated.

AbstractPostural and walking instabilities contribute to falls in older adults. Given that shoes affect human locomotor stability and that visual, cognitive and somatosensory systems deteriorate during aging, we aimed to: (1) compare the effects of footwear type on stability and mobility in persons with a history of falls, and (2) determine whether the effect of footwear type on stability is altered by the absence of visual input or by an additional cognitive load. Thirty participants performed standing and walking trials in three footwear conditions, i.e. conventional shoes, minimal shoes, and barefoot. The outcomes were: (1) postural stability (movement of the center of pressure during eyes open/closed), (2) walking stability (Margin of Stability during normal/dual-task walking), (3) mobility (the Timed Up and Go test and the Star Excursion Balance test), and (4) perceptions of the shoes (Monitor Orthopaedic Shoes questionnaire). Participants were more stable during standing and walking in minimal shoes than in conventional shoes, independent of visual or walking condition. Minimal shoes were more beneficial for mobility than conventional shoes and barefoot. This study supports the need for longitudinal studies investigating whether minimal footwear is more beneficial for fall prevention in older people than conventional footwear.

Data-driven methods using synchrophasor measurements have a broad application prospect in Transient Stability Assessment (TSA). Most previous studies only focused on predicting whether the power system is stable or not after disturbance, which lacked a quantitative analysis of the risk of transient stability. Therefore, this paper proposes a two-stage power system TSA method based on snapshot ensemble long short-term memory (LSTM) network. This method can efficiently build an ensemble model through a single training process, and employ the disturbed trajectory measurements as the inputs, which can realize rapid end-to-end TSA. In the first stage, dynamic hierarchical assessment is carried out through the classifier, so as to screen out credible samples step by step. In the second stage, the regressor is used to predict the transient stability margin of the credible stable samples and the undetermined samples, and combined with the built risk function to realize the risk quantification of transient angle stability. Furthermore, by modifying the loss function of the model, it effectively overcomes sample imbalance and overlapping. The simulation results show that the proposed method can not only accurately predict binary information representing transient stability status of samples, but also reasonably reflect the transient safety risk level of power systems, providing reliable reference for the subsequent control.

Stability is a prerequisite for legged robots to execute tasks and traverse rough terrains. To guarantee the stability of quadruped locomotion and improve the terrain adaptability of quadruped robots, a stability-guaranteed and high terrain adaptability static gait for quadruped robots is addressed. Firstly, three chosen stability-guaranteed static gaits: intermittent gait 1&2 and coordinated gait are investigated. In addition, then the static gait: intermittent gait 1, which is with the biggest stability margin, is chosen to do a further research about quadruped robots walking on rough terrains. Secondly, a position/force based impedance control is employed to achieve a compliant behavior of quadruped robots on rough terrains. Thirdly, an exploratory gait planning method on uneven terrains with touch sensing and an attitude-position adjustment strategy with terrain estimation are proposed to improve the terrain adaptability of quadruped robots. Finally, the proposed methods are validated by simulations.
