  • Abstract
    We suggest a new mechanism for interarea electric power system oscillations in which two oscillatory modes interact near a strong resonance to cause one of the modes to subsequently become unstable. The possibility of this mechanism for oscillations is shown by theory and computational examples. Theory suggests that passing near strong resonance can be expected in general power system models. The mechanism for oscillations is illustrated in 3- and 9-bus examples with detailed generator models
