Attack vulnerability of scale-free networks due to cascading failures

J Wang, L Rong, L Zhang, Z Zhang - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and …, 2008 - Elsevier
In this paper, adopting the initial load of a node i to be akiα with ki being the degree of the
node i, we propose a cascading model based on a load local redistribution rule and …

A model for cascading failures in scale-free networks with a breakdown probability

JW Wang, LL Rong - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2009 - Elsevier
Considering that not all overload nodes will be removed from networks due to some effective
measures to protect them, we propose a new cascading model with a breakdown …

Invulnerability of scale-free network against critical node failures based on a renewed cascading failure model

X Peng, H Yao, J Du, Z Wang, C Ding - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics …, 2015 - Elsevier
The invulnerability or robustness of complex networks against cascading failures under
critical node failures is of great realistic meaning. Inspired by other related works, we …

Edge-based-attack induced cascading failures on scale-free networks

JW Wang, LL Rong - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2009 - Elsevier
Most previous existing works on cascading failures only focused on attacks on nodes rather
than on edges. In this paper, we discuss the response of scale-free networks subject to two …

Mitigation strategies on scale-free networks against cascading failures

J Wang - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2013 - Elsevier
According to the dynamic characteristics of the cascading propagation, we introduce a
mitigation mechanism and propose four mitigation methods on four types of nodes. By the …

Universal robustness characteristic of weighted networks against cascading failure

WX Wang, G Chen - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2008 - APS
We investigate the cascading failure on weighted complex networks by adopting a local
weighted flow redistribution rule, where the weight of an edge is (kikj) θ with ki and kj being …

Attack vulnerability of scale-free networks due to cascading breakdown

L Zhao, K Park, YC Lai - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and Soft …, 2004 - APS
The possibility that a complex network can be brought down by attack on a single or a very
few nodes through the process of cascading failures is of significant concern. Here we …

Robustness of networks against cascading failures

BL Dou, XG Wang, SY Zhang - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its …, 2010 - Elsevier
Inspired by other related works, this paper proposes a non-linear load-capacity model
against cascading failures, which is more suitable for real networks. The simulation was …

Tolerance of scale-free networks against attack-induced cascades

L Zhao, K Park, YC Lai, N Ye - Physical Review E—Statistical, Nonlinear, and …, 2005 - APS
Scale-free networks can be disintegrated by attack on a single or a very few nodes through
the process of cascading failures. By utilizing a prototype cascading model, we previously …

Cascading failures of overload behaviors on interdependent networks

N Wang, ZY Jin, J Zhao - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its …, 2021 - Elsevier
The increasing dependence between infrastructure networks and the threat of cascading
failures on network security motivated the analysis of the overload behaviors on …
