Abstract-This paper explores the use of a new technique, the probabilistic collocation method (PCM), to enable the evaluation of uncertainty in power system simulations. The PCM allows the uncertainty in transient behavior of power systems to be studied using only a handful of simulations. The relevant theory is outlined here and simple examples are used to illustrate the application of PCM in a power systems setting. In addition, an index for identification of key uncertain parameters, as well as an example with a more realistic power system, are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
