For practicing engineers in the electric power industry and graduate students and researchers, Momoh (electrical engineering, Howard U.) and El-Hawary (electrical and computer engineering, Dalhousie U.) provide the necessary fundamentals for understanding and analyzing power systems dynamics, stability problems, and the application of artificial intelligence technology to those problems. After introducing the history, structure, and security of power systems, they discuss static and dynamic electric network models; the philosophy of security assessment; using the transient energy function to assess angle stability; assessing voltage stability; the technology of intelligent systems; and applying artificial intelligence to angle stability studies, voltage stability, and enhancing electrical power systems. They include problems and a glossary without pronunciation guides. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
