This paper presents a new Matlab toolbox, aimed at facilitating the use of polynomial optimization for stability analysis of nonlinear systems. In the past decade several decisive contributions made it possible to recast this type of problems as convex optimization ones that are tractable in modest dimensions. However, available software requires their user to be fluent in Sum-of-Squares programming, preventing them from being more widely explored by practitioners. To address this issue, SOStab entirely automates the writing and solving of optimization problems, and directly outputs relevant data for the user, while requiring minimal input. In particular, no specific knowledge of optimization is needed for implementation. The toolbox allows a user to obtain outer and inner approximates of the Region of Attraction (RoA) of the operating point of different grid connected devices such as synchronous machines and power converters.
