properties of complex systems, may these be natural or pertaining human engineered …

This paper reviews the most relevant works that have investigated robustness in power grids
using Complex Networks (CN) concepts. In this broad field there are two different …

The aim of this article is to discuss reliability issues of a few visual techniques used in
stylometry, and to introduce a new method that enhances the explanatory power of …

One of the fundamental tasks in complex networks is detecting critical nodes whose removal
significantly disrupts network connectivity. Identifying critical nodes can help analyze the …

We consider line outages in the transmission network of the power grid, and specifically
those caused by natural disasters or large-scale physical attacks. In such networks, an …

In the past two decades the frequent occurrences of large scale blackouts and catastrophic
events has reduced the reliability of power grid to a great extent. A thorough analysis of the …

This article reviews different kinds of models for the electric power grid that can be used to
understand the modern power system, the smart grid. From the physical network to abstract …

Most existing research on the vulnerability of power grids based on complex networks
ignores the electrical characteristics and the capacity of generators and load. In this paper …
