: Introduction of population-based optimal design and the Hooke–Jeeves method for large wind generators.

Standards and guides for AC generator protection (e.g., IEEE Std C37.102-2006).

This comprehensive handbook serves as a state-of-the-art guide for designing and deploying power generation technologies.

: Insights into the control of autonomous synchronous generators.

Protection strategies for internal faults, abnormal operating conditions, and external disturbances.

Fully revised and updated to reflect the last decade's worth of progress in the field, this Second Edition adds new sections that:

: New sections on high-power wind generators with minimal or no permanent magnets (PMs).

Published by the , the Second Edition (2011) of this tutorial is a seminal work for power engineers.
