Small vulnerable sets determine large network cascades in power grids
Yang Yang, Takashi Nishikawa, Adilson E. Motter
The understanding of cascading failures in complex systems has been hindered by the lack of realistic large-scale modeling and analysis that can account for variable system conditi…
Cascading Failures as Continuous Phase-Space Transitions
Yang Yang, Adilson E. Motter
In network systems, a local perturbation can amplify as it propagates, potentially leading to a large-scale cascading failure. Here we derive a continuous model to advance our unde…
Vulnerability and co-susceptibility determine the size of network cascades
Yang Yang, Takashi Nishikawa, Adilson E. Motter
In a network, a local disturbance can propagate and eventually cause a substantial part of the system to fail, in cascade events that are easy to conceptualize but extraordinarily…
The Unfolding and Control of Network Cascades
Adilson E. Motter, Yang Yang
A characteristic property of networks is their ability to propagate influences, such as infectious diseases, behavioral changes, and failures. An especially important class of such…
Observability transition in real networks
Yang Yang, Filippo Radicchi
We consider the observability model in networks with arbitrary topologies. We introduce a system of coupled nonlinear equations, valid under the locally tree-like ansatz, to descri…
Network Observability Transitions
Yang Yang, Jianhui Wang, Adilson E. Motter
In the modeling, monitoring, and control of complex networks, a fundamental problem concerns the comprehensive determination of the state of the system from limited measurements. U…
