Complex networks are ubiquitous: a cell, the human brain, a group of people and the
Internet are all examples of interconnected many-body systems characterized by …

The rise of power outages caused by extreme weather events and the frequency of extreme
weather events has motivated the study of grid resilience. This paper presents a state-of-the …

INTRODUCTION Cascading failures in power grids are inherently network processes, in
which an initially small perturbation leads to a sequence of failures that spread through the …

Reliable functioning of infrastructure networks is essential for our modern society.
Cascading failures are the cause of most large-scale network outages. Although cascading …

The study of network robustness is a critical tool in the characterization and sense making of
complex interconnected systems such as infrastructure, communication and social networks …

Coordination among social animals requires rapid and efficient transfer of information
among individuals, which may depend crucially on the underlying structure of the …

Many systems on our planet shift abruptly and irreversibly from the desired state to an
undesired state when forced across a “tip** point”. Some examples are mass extinctions …

Complex systems are very often organized under the form of networks where nodes and
edges are embedded in space. Transportation and mobility networks, Internet, mobile phone …

A power grid is a complex system connecting electric power generators to consumers
through power transmission and distribution networks across a large geographical area …

The statistical tools of Complex Network Analysis are of useful to understand salient
properties of complex systems, may these be natural or pertaining human engineered …
