DESCRIPTION:The dynamic behavior of the electric grid is changing rapidly a
 s inverter-based resources (IBRs) replace traditional synchronous generato
 rs in delivering critical system services. This rapid shift—driven by th
 e growth of distributed generation and energy storage—requires a fundame
 ntal re-evaluation of how we define and assess grid stability. In particul
 ar\, the traditional concept of grid “inertia” must be reconsidered to
  ensure that stability metrics accurately reflect modern system behavior.\
 n\nIn this presentation\, I will discuss the nonlinear dynamic nature of t
 he power grid\, the influence of increasing IBR penetration on stability\,
  and our recent work on transient stability assessment. I will highlight e
 xamples involving grid-forming inverter models and our efforts to incorpor
 ate improved stability metrics into simulation frameworks. By combining ph
 ysical intuition with practical modeling\, this ongoing work aims to infor
 m new approaches to stability assessment for the future power grid.\n\nSpe
