Abstract

Smart Grid is the next generation of the electrical power systems that form from interdependent networks. Cascading failures in such interdependent critical infrastructure is very crucial which can cause wide spread disruption. This chapter is intended to evaluate four different topological metrics in which can be best described and approximated the behavior of cascading failures in interdependent networks by employing two interlinks strategies such as random interlinks addition and degree-degree correlation interlinks. The four chosen topological metrics are algebraic connectivity, effective graph resistance, average betweenness centrality, and average distance. Throughout the chapter, analytical study of each metric are discussed and also compared with numerical simulation based on sandpile dynamics load distribution.
