A large amount of uncertainty introduced into power systems may affect the system
vulnerability to cascading failures. The objectives of this study are to analyze the power …

Dynamical simulation of the cascade failures on the Europe and United States (US) high-
voltage power grids has been done via solving the second-order Kuramoto equation. We …

We study the failure process of fiber bundles on complex networks focusing on the effect of
the degree of disorder of fibers' strength on the transition from localized to mean field …

The intermittent dynamics of driven interfaces through disordered media and its subsequent
depinning for large enough driving force is a common feature for a myriad of diverse …

Prediction of a breakdown in disordered solids under external loading is a question of
paramount importance. Here we use a fiber bundle model for disordered solids and record …

Power-law distributed cascade failures are well known in power-grid systems.
Understanding this phenomena has been done by various DC threshold models, self-tuned …

Inequalities are abundant in a society with a number of agents competing for a limited
amount of resources. Statistics on such social inequalities are usually represented by the …

We investigate how the interplay of the topology of the network of load transmitting
connections and the amount of disorder of the strength of the connected elements …

Cascade failures in power grids occur when the failure of one component or subsystem
causes a chain reaction of failures in other components or subsystems, ultimately leading to …

Cascading failure triggered by tiny failure iteratively propagates between physical power
grid and communication network, causing severe damage on cyber-physical power systems …
