The most frequent N-k line outages occur in motifs that can improve contingency selection
Kai Zhou, Ian Dobson, Zhaoyu Wang
Multiple line outages that occur together show a variety of spatial patterns in the power transmission network. Some of these spatial patterns form network contingency motifs, whic…

A Markovian influence graph formed from utility line outage data to mitigate large cascades
Kai Zhou, Ian Dobson, Zhaoyu Wang +2
We use observed transmission line outage data to make a Markov influence graph that describes the probabilities of transitions between generations of cascading line outages, where…

Exploring cascading outages and weather via processing historic data
Ian Dobson, NichelleLe K. Carrington, Kai Zhou +3
We describe some bulk statistics of historical initial line outages and the implications for forming contingency lists and understanding which initial outages are likely to lead to…
