Aspects of Screening and Confinement in a Topologically Massive U1W×U(1)Y Chern-Simons-Higgs Theory by Patricio Gaete, José A. Helayël-Neto

“…By using the gauge-invariant but path-dependent variables formalism, we consider a recently proposed topologically massive U1W×U(1)Y Chern-Simons-Higgs theory in 2+1 dimensions. In particular, we inspect the impact of a Chern-Simons mixing term between two Abelian gauge fields on physical observables. …”

Voltage Stability Analysis of Front-End Speed Controlled Wind Turbine Integrated into Regional Power Grid Based on Bifurcation Theory by Kaide Ren, Hongwei Li, Shuaibing Li, Haiying Dong

“…Based on that, the influence of the reactive power variation and wind speed fluctuation on the stability of system voltage is analyzed through both the bifurcation theory and the time-domain simulation. Results show that the Hopf bifurcation (HB) and the saddle-node bifurcation (SNB) are inherited for the system, indicating that such bifurcations are the essence of nonlinear dynamics that lead to voltage instability. …”
