Uncertainty is an inherent aspect of large-scale engineered systems, and its impact must be carefully analyzed to ensure their reliability and performance. This comprehensive set of tools and techniques provides accessible yet rigorous coverage of uncertainty analysis, showcasing the theory through detailed case studies drawn from electric power application problems. The case studies cover a wide range of topics, including the integration of renewable-based power generation in bulk power systems, the impact of corrupted measurement and communication devices in microgrid closed-loop controls, and the impact of components failures on the reliability of power supply systems.

Moreover, the case studies serve as a valuable guide on how to tackle similar problems that appear in other engineering application domains, such as automotive and aerospace engineering. The book is essential reading for academic researchers and graduate students in power systems engineering, dynamic systems and control engineering, and anyone interested in developing a deeper understanding of the challenges posed by uncertainty in complex systems.

By leveraging the power of uncertainty analysis, engineers can develop more robust and reliable systems that can withstand the unpredictable challenges of the real world. This book provides the necessary knowledge and tools to achieve this goal.
