A newton approach for long term stability studies in power systems

This paper deals with the problem of transient and long term stability of power systems. The issue of assessing both horizons of analysis is particularly focused. This is because the long term stability may be studied by a simplified algebraic model which also captures some dynamic characteristics. Such an approach is called quasi-dynamic model. The idea of analyzing the transient period and migrating to the quasi-dynamic model is addressed in this paper. The theoretical foundation is presented and some tests are carried out in order to validate the approach.
