Cascading failure is a potentially devastating process that spreads on real-world complex
networks and can impact the integrity of wide-ranging infrastructures, natural systems and …

The growing interconnections among societies have facilitated the emergence of systemic
crises, ie, shocks that rapidly spread around the world and cause major disruptions …

In this brief, we propose a stochastic model based on state transition theory to investigate
the dynamics of cascading failures in communication networks. We describe the failure …

Many real networks, such as infrastructure networks, are interdependent and their structure
is influenced by spatial constraints. However, the existence of spatial constraints and …

With the rapid development of global trade, the member enterprises in the automotive
manufacturing supply chain are widely spread around the world. As a result, the scale of the …

We study the critical behavior of a general contagion model where nodes are either active
(eg, with opinion A, or functioning) or inactive (eg, with opinion B, or damaged). The …

Networks are designed to ensure proper functioning and sustained operability of the
underlying systems. However, disruptions are generally unavoidable. Internal interactions …

Over the past decades, prevention and mitigation against cascading failure blackouts in
complex networked systems have been extensively studied. In reality, the functional and …

Many networks are physically or logically interdependent with each other, such as smart
power grid, city traffic network and communication systems, where cascading overload …

How does the spread of behavior affect consensus-based collective decision-making among
animals, humans or swarming robots? In prior research, such propagation of behavior on …
