In the context of urbanization and a growing population, cities and citizens are becoming
more exposed and vulnerable to social and environmental changes, ranging from natural …

The integration of telecommunications in the energy grid, which is paving the way for Smart
Grids, calls into question how the energy sector has historically ensured safe operations …

The vision of a smart grid is predicated upon pervasive use of modern digital communication
techniques to today's power system. As wide area measurements and control techniques …

Large blackouts are typically caused by cascading failure propagating through a power
system by means of a variety of processes. Because of the wide range of time scales …

Cascading effects in the power grid involve an uncontrolled, successive failure of elements.
The root cause of such failures is the combined occurrence of multiple, statistically rare …

Large-scale blackouts typically result from cascading failure in power systems operation.
Their mitigation in power system planning calls for the development of methods and …

The massive power flow transferring triggers the node overload cascade, which further
activates the protection system hidden failures. In this study, we propose a cascading failure …

Outages and faults in interconnected power systems may cause cascading sequences of
events, and catastrophic failures of power systems. How to efficiently manage power …

This paper presents a new risk assessment method that is applicable to extreme cases in
power systems. This paper analyzes the interactions among protection system components …
