Fig. 6From: Engineering structural robustness in power grid networks susceptible to community desynchronizationSample Instability Frontiers in Fault-Time Parameter Space. Sample results of simulations over a region of fault-time parameter space. Each box represents a simulation with fault times (τ1,τ2), with its color denoting the number of generator buses which exhibited unstable dynamics. A set of simulations like this was carried out for each line in the network. Examples are presented for a) a fault location likely to induce CSI, and b) a fault location unlikely to induce CSI. Note: the color scale is produced by ennumerating unstable generator buses (just those marked by squares in Fig. 1) so a count of 9 corresponds to the whole New England subnetworkBack to article page
