Microgrids are considered as a potential solution to deal with major power disruption events
due to their ability of islanding and potential to sustain the penetration of renewables. In …

The smart grid is arguably one of the most complex cyber‐physical systems (CPS). Complex
security challenges have been revealed in both the physical and the cyber parts of the smart …

The world has been experiencing natural disasters and man-made attacks on power system
networks over the past few decades. These occurrences directly affect electricity …

The failure of a power system as a critical infrastructure causes considerable damage to
society. Hence, the vulnerabilities of such facilities should be minimized to cope with several …

Existing smart grid security research investigates different attack techniques and cascading
failures from the attackers' viewpoints, while the defenders' or the operators' protection …

Recent studies on sequential attack schemes revealed new smart grid vulnerability that can
be exploited by attacks on the network topology. Traditional power systems contingency …

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 …

Recently, there has been a focus on natural and man-made disasters with a high-impact low-
frequency (HILF) property in electric power systems. A power system must be built with …

This paper analyzes a coordinated cyber-physical attack on power systems, which could
lead to undetectable line outages. Coordinated with physical attacks that cause line …

The transformation of traditional energy networks to smart grids can assist in revolutionizing
the energy industry in terms of reliability, performance and manageability. However …
