Heavy tails in dynamic flow networks: Universal explanation of their emergence
Agnieszka Janicka, Fiona Sloothaak, Maria Vlasiou +1
Overload-induced cascading failures can cause extreme disruptions in a wide range of networked systems, such as power grids, transportation networks, or financial systems. Empirica…
Emergence of Scale-Free Traffic Jams in Highway Networks: A Probabilistic Approach
Agnieszka Janicka, Fiona Sloothaak, Maria Vlasiou +1
Traffic congestion continues to escalate with urbanization and socioeconomic development, necessitating advanced modeling to understand and mitigate its impacts. In large-scale net…
Emergence of scale-free blackout sizes in power grids
Tommaso Nesti, Fiona Sloothaak, Bert Zwart
We model power grids as graphs with heavy-tailed sinks, which represent demand from cities, and study cascading failures on such graphs. Our analysis links the scale-free nature of…
The impact of a network split on cascading failure processes
Fiona Sloothaak, Sem C. Borst, Bert Zwart
Cascading failure models are typically used to capture the phenomenon where failures possibly trigger further failures in succession, causing knock-on effects. In many networks thi…
