TLDR
The security, agility, and robustness/survivability of a large-scale power delivery infrastructure that faces new threats and unanticipated conditions is presented.Abstract:
In this article, we present the security, agility, and robustness/survivability of a large-scale power delivery infrastructure that faces new threats and unanticipated conditions. By way of background, we present a brief overview of the past work on the challenges faced in online parameter estimation and real-time adaptive control of a damaged F-15 aircraft. This work, in part, provided the inspiration and laid the foundation in the 1990s for the flight testing of a fast parameter estimation/modeling and reconfigurable aircraft control system that allowed the F-15 to become self-healing in the face of damaged equipment.read more

Kirchhoff-Braess phenomena in DC electric networks
Shuai Wang,John Baillieul +1 more
TL;DR: While the results below have qualitative characteristics that are similar to the voltage-controlled case, there appears to be more subtlety and even a degree of indeterminacy that point to the need for further research to understand the ways in which congestion in transmission and distribution networks will depend on changes in grid topologies.
