My scholarship at Western Washington University (WWU) is at the nexus of three main topics: (i) impact of cyber-physical coupling, (ii) reliability analysis and health monitoring of systems, and (iii) impact of renewable-based generation. The advent of new technologies such as renewable generation, flexible loads, and advanced sensors will require novel techniques of monitoring, control, and operation of the power system. My research addresses the challenges of integrating such technologies into the existing power grid to ensure its reliable, efficient, and economical operation.
