With the large-scale integration of electric vehicles (EVs) in the distribution grid, the unpredictable nature of EV charging introduces considerable uncertainties to the grid's real-time operations. This can exacerbate load fluctuations,…

Wholesale power markets often use linear approximations of power system constraints. Because it does not consider inequality constraints, using AC power flow for feasibility post-processing can violate bounds on reactive power, voltage…

This paper examines the operation of distribution networks that have large aggregations of thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) providing secondary frequency regulation to the bulk power system. Specifically, we assess the prevalence of…

The cloud's flexibility and promise of seamless auto-scaling notwithstanding, its ability to meet service level objectives (SLOs) typically calls for some form of control in resource usage. This seemingly traditional problem gives rise to…

This paper investigates the potential of wind turbine generators (WTGs) and load aggregators (LAs) to provide supplementary damping control services for low frequency inter-area oscillations (LFOs) through the additional distributed damping…

A class of data integrity attack, known as false data injection (FDI) attack, has been studied with a considerable amount of work. It has shown that with perfect knowledge of the system model and the capability to manipulate a certain…

Recent massive failures in the power grid acted as a wake up call for all utilities and consumers. This leads to aggressive pursue a more intelligent grid which addresses the concerns of reliability, efficiency, security, quality and…

Batteries play a key role in today's power grid. In this paper, we investigate the impact of battery degradation on the distribution network. We formulate a multi-objective framework for optimizing battery scheduling with the goals of…

Modern urban railways extensively use computerized sensing and control technologies to achieve safe, reliable, and well-timed operations. However, the use of these technologies may provide a convenient leverage to cyber-attackers who have…

Due to the energy transition, today's electrical networks include synchronous machines and inverter-based resources interfacing renewable energies such as wind turbines, solar panels, and Battery Energy Storage Systems to the grid. In such…

This paper studies the consequences of a human-initiated targeted attack on the national electric power system. We consider two kinds of attacks: ($i$) an attack by an adversary that uses a tactical weapon and destroys a large part of the…

From an operational and planning perspective, it is important to quantify the impact of increasing penetration of photovoltaics on the distribution system. Most existing impact assessment studies are scenario-based where derived results are…

This article explores the effects of a single bus perturbation in the electrical grid using a Graph Signal Processing (GSP) perspective. The perturbation is characterized by a sudden change in real-power load demand or generation. The study…

Recent advancements in 3D-printing/additive manufacturing has brought forth a new interest in the use of Controller Area Network (CAN) for multi-module, plug-and-play bus support for their embedded systems. CAN systems provide a variety of…

Optimal charging of electric vehicle (EVs) depends heavily on reliable sensor measurements from the battery pack to the cloud-controller of the smart charging station. However, an adversary could corrupt the voltage sensor data during…

This paper studies physical consequences of unobservable false data injection (FDI) attacks designed only with information inside a sub-network of the power system. The goal of this attack is to overload a chosen target line without being…

With the proliferation of smart devices and revolutions in communications, electrical distribution systems are gradually shifting from passive, manually-operated and inflexible ones, to a massively interconnected cyber-physical smart grid…

Smart grids are inherently susceptible to various types of malicious cyberattacks that have all been documented in the recent literature. Traditional cybersecurity research on power systems often utilizes simplified models that fail to…

Data for controlling a vehicle is exchanged among Electronic Control Units (ECUs) via in-vehicle network protocols such as the Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol. Since these protocols are designed for an isolated network, the protocols…

Distributed laser charging (DLC) is a wireless power transfer technology for mobile electronics. Similar to traditional wireless charging systems, the DLC system can only provide constant power to charge a battery. However, Li-ion battery…
