Strong frequency dependence is unlikely in diffusive or over-damped systems. When exceptions do occur, such as in the case of stochastic resonance, it signals an interesting underlying phenomenon. We find that such a case appears in the…
Power system blackouts are usually triggered by the initial contingency and then deteriorate as the branch outage spreads quickly. Thus, it is crucial to eliminate the propagation of cascading outages in its infancy. In this paper, a model…

In a cascading power transmission outage, component outages propagate non-locally, after one component outages, the next failure may be very distant, both topologically and geographically. As a result, simple models of topological contagion…
