Continuation power flow has been developed to remove the ill-condition problem caused by singularity of power flow Jacobian at and near steady-state voltage instability point in conventional power flow. When solving large-scale power transmission systems, an alternative strategy for improving computational efficiency and reducing computer storage requirements is the decoupled power flow method, which makes use of an approximate version of the Newton-Raphson procedure. This paper presents a technique to improve the speed of continuation power flow system using decoupled power flow method.

Two dimensional Fourier transform can be used for the upward continuation of gravity or magnetic field data acquired at given altitude over a rectangular area. Earth's curvature is often neglected in most potential field continuations, however, it should be considered over several hundred kilometer field area. In this study, we developed a new method retaining terms of Earth's curvature to better perform the continuation of potential field on spherical patch area.

This paper presents a new continuation-based quasi-steady-state(CQSS) time-domain simulation algorithm incorporating a multiplicative aggregated load model for power systems. The authors' previous paper introduced a CQSS algorithm, which has the robust convergent characteristic near the singularity point due to the application of a continuation method. The previous CQSS algorithm implemented the load restoration in power systems using the exponent-based load recovery model that is derived from the additive dynamic load model. However, the reformulated exponent-based model causes the inappropriate variation of short-term load characteristics when switching actions occur, during time-domain simulation. This paper depicts how to incorporate a multiplicative load restoration model, which does not have the problem of deforming short-term load characteristics, into the time simulation algorithm, and shows an illustrative example with a 39-bus test system.

Recently the slab span-jointing method has been employed as one of the retrofit technologies to enhance the capacity of existing simple beam bridges in many cases. In general this method makes simple beam bridges behave like multi-span continuous bridges under service loads excluding self weight in company with external prestress force method in the field. In this paper the continuation effect has been studied for the retrofitted bridges by the experimental and numerical approaches. The results show that the deflections and stresses of members are reduced due to the increase of the total stiffness of bridge system and the efficiency of bridge continuation based on the slab span-jointing method is about 40 % when comparing with the case of continuous bridges.

The purpose of this paper is recovery of the profiles of the wave speed and density from the reflection coefficients of the continuously layered acoustic medium with depth dependent density and wave speed at various angles of incidence. A downward continuation or layer stripping algorithm, which recursively reconstructs the medium in increasing depth and then strips away the effects of the reconstructed portion of the medium, is the method with fewer computations than integral equation procedures. This paper implements an improved downward continuation algorithm that uses reflection data at several angles of incidence and performs a least-squares fitting at each depth. The result is a considerable improvement in performance over the usual downward continuation algorithm.

A Discrete continuation Method/homotopy approaches are studied for energy/fuel optimal low thrust Earth escape trajectory by solving a two point boundary value problem(TPBVP). Recently, maneuvers using low thrust propulsion system have been identified as emerging technologies. The low thruster is considered as the main actuator for orbit maneuvers. The cost function consists of a energy/fuel consumption function, and constraints are position and velocity vectors at the terminal escape point. Solving the minimum energy/fuel problem directly is not an easy task, so we adopt the homotopy analysis. Using a solution of the minimum energy, which is solved by discrete continuation method, we obtain the solution of the minimum fuel problem.

The most widely used index for the vulnerable area investigation has been the reactive power margin or sensitivity analysis. But we can only obtain the results of these analyses if the results of load flow are convergent in severe contingencies. Otherwise these methods are not adoptable. This paper presents a good index for overcoming severe contingencies, though the power flow equation is unsolvable using the branch parameter continuation power flow. In simulation, the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) Systems are applied.

We consider the projectivization of Minkowski space with the analytic continuation of the hyperbolic metric and call this an extended hyperbolic space. We can measure the volume of a domain lying across the boundary of the hyperbolic space using an analytic continuation argument. In this paper we show this method can be further generalized to find the volume of a domain with smooth boundary with suitable regularity in dimension 2 and 3. We also discuss that this volume is invariant under the group of hyperbolic isometries and that this regularity condition is sharp.

In this paper. continuation power flow for Power system including UPFC has been performed. The decoupled model, by which power flow can be performed without any modification of conventional power flow program is used as steady-state model. A numerical example has been given to analyze the influence on the voltage stability by UPFC.

We study the real-analytic continuation of local real-analytic solutions to the Cauchy problems of quasi-linear partial differential equations of first order for a scalar function. By making use of the first integrals of the characteristic vector field and the implicit function theorem we determine the maximal domain of the analytic extension of a local solution as a single-valued function. We present some examples including the scalar conservation laws that admit global first integrals so that our method is applicable.
