Abstract

A network of coupled Kuramoto-like os-cillators is studied to model the dynamics in modern power systems. While previous works focus on the criteria of syn-chronization, we in this paper study the development of desynchronization, which may lead to power outrage and system breakdown in real power systems. Instead of numerically simulating detailed component-level models, we use a simplified network-reduced model which captures essential features of a real system, including spread of desynchronization waves under disturbances. Some statistical results about the relation between the maximum disturbance and coupling strength are also found.
