Interdependencies are ubiquitous throughout the world. Every real-world system interacts with and is dependent on other systems, and this interdependency affects their performance. In particular, interdependencies among ...

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 societal cohesiveness. One of the essential ...

Given the incidence of blackouts during recent years, there has been an increased interest in understanding them to increase system reliability in the future. Multiple research efforts have been devoted to cascading models, ...

Various social, financial, biological and technological systems can be modeled by interdependent networks. It has been assumed that in order to remain functional, nodes in one network must receive the support from nodes ...

Recent studies have shown that in interdependent networks an initial failure of a fraction 1 − p of nodes in one network, exposes the system to a cascade of failures. Therefore it is important to develop efficient strategies ...

As the interconnection of power grids, failure of single component could propagate out, and because of the scale of the power system, it is almost impossible to analysis all failure patterns. Traditional methods for online ...

The analysis of network robustness tackles the problem of studying how a complex network behaves under adverse scenarios, such as failures or attacks. In particular, the analysis of interdependent networks' robustness ...

Recent network research has focused on the cascading failures in a system of interdependent networks and the necessary preconditions for system collapse. An important question that has not been addressed is how to repair ...

Complex network study pointed out that, between the macro level and the micro level, there still exist abundant various dimensions addressed as subgraph, including motifs, cliques, cores... The structural property of these ...

The HIV care cascade has improved in Latin America over the last decade. However, the influence of alcohol and noninjected drug use (NIDU) on cascade outcomes is mostly unknown. This study estimated the association of ...
