Cyber-Physical Structures of Power Applications

Cyber-Physical Structures of Power Applications looks at the necessary cyber-physical structure for the proper operation of power applications and the challenges and future trends of cyber-physical power applications. In order to ensure an efficient, reliable and secure operation of power applications, this reference considers the coordination and control of power applications necessary for successful implementation of communication networks and the effects on power applications physical components, cyber-infrastructures, and controllers, considered as cyber-physical systems (CPSs).

Uniquely covering cyber and physical parts of reliability assessment of power systems and power electronic components, this book provides obstacles, analytical solutions, and future trends of power applications while considering cyber systems. Moreover, it provides several strategies related to control of large- and small-scale power systems and previews challenges (e.g., vulnerability to cyber-attacks) and future trends of cyber structures in control strategies in large and small power systems.

Written for researchers and engineers working in research and development centers and electrical power and energy industries this reference is also useful for those interested in detailed structure and analysis of special power applications, i.e., electric vehicles, shipboard power systems, aircraft, and satellites.
