Features: The book is divided into three parts, totaling 17 chapters. The first part outlines the general characteristics of modern power systems, introduces the basic concepts and definitions of power system stability, proposes a classification of power system stability, and provides a brief explanation of various stability issues in power systems. The second part introduces the characteristics and simulation methods of various main components of power systems, including synchronous machines, transmission lines, loads, excitation systems, prime movers and primary energy systems, high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission, as well as active and reactive power control. The third part is the core of the book, providing an in-depth discussion of power system angle stability (including small-signal stability and transient stability), voltage stability, subsynchronous oscillations, medium-to-long-term stability, and various measures to improve stability. Corresponding examples or simulation calculation results are provided at the end of important chapters throughout the book.
