An Innovative Energy Management System for Microgrids with Multiple Grid-Forming Inverters
As increasingly more grid-forming (GFM) inverter-based resources replace traditional fossil-fueled synchronous generators as the GFM sources in microgrids, the existing microgrid energy management systems (EMS) need to be updated to control and coordinate multiple GFM inverters th...

Investigating Multi-Microgrid Black Start Methods Using Grid-Forming Inverters
This paper examines state-of-the-art microgrid (MG) black-start technologies with grid-forming (GFM) inverter-based resources (IBRs) and proposes black start and interconnection methods for 100% inverter-based MGs. A multiple-MG approach is proposed and compared to the existing me...

Synchronization of Lienard-Type Oscillators in Heterogenous Electrical Networks
Motivated by potential applications for power-electronic converters in microgrids, we study the problem of global asymptotic synchronization of Lienard-type nonlinear oscillators in heterogenous LTI electrical networks with series R-L circuits modeling interconnections. By heterog...
