Power grids as complex networks: Resilience and reliability analysis

AM Amani, M Jalili - Ieee Access, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Power grids are cyber-physical systems and can be modelled as network systems where
individual units (generators, busbars and loads) are interconnected through physical and …

Small vulnerable sets determine large network cascades in power grids

Y Yang, T Nishikawa, AE Motter - Science, 2017 - science.org
INTRODUCTION Cascading failures in power grids are inherently network processes, in
which an initially small perturbation leads to a sequence of failures that spread through the …

Cascading failures in ac electricity grids

M Rohden, D Jung, S Tamrakar, S Kettemann - Physical Review E, 2016 - APS
Sudden failure of a single transmission element in a power grid can induce a domino effect
of cascading failures, which can lead to the isolation of a large number of consumers or …

Vulnerability of interdependent networks and networks of networks

MM Danziger, LM Shekhtman, A Bashan… - Interconnected …, 2016 - Springer
Networks interact with one another in a variety of ways. Even though increased connectivity
