Many biological systems perform close to their physical limits, but promoting this optimality to a general principle seems to require implausibly fine tuning of parameters. Using examples from a wide range of systems, we show that this…

In this paper we consider a possibility of stabilizing very fast electromagnetic interactions between Inverter Based Resources (IBRs), known as the Control Induced System Stability problems. We propose that when these oscillatory…
