an AC SIMulator of SEParation: Simulating cascading failure in power systems
ACSIMSEP is a quasi-steady-state simulator of cascading failures in large-scale power transmission systems. The code is written primarly by Paul Hines at the University of Vermont (uvm.edu/~phines).
To install ACSIMSEP follow the following proceedure:
- First make a local copy of the repository using something like
git@github.com:phines/acsimsep.git
- Install the key Third Party codes:
- Install SuiteSparse by navigating to the
acsimsep/ThirdParty/SuiteSparse
directory and then:make
and thenmake install
. - Install Coin-Bonmin and its friends:
cd ../Coin-Bonmin/
and then./configure
and thenmake
and thenmake install
. - Both of these commands will install the relevant files within the SuiteSparse and Coin-Bonmin directories.
- Once the third party code is installed, you should be able to compile ACSIMSEP by navigating to the root acsimsep directory and then issuing
./configure
and thenmake
and thenmake install
. - This will install several test programs in the
acsimsep/bin
directory. Hopefully they work.
Some day I'll write some :)
