On power system blackout modeling and analysis based on self-organized criticality

This paper makes a comprehensive survey on power system blackout modeling and analysis based on SOC (self-organized criticality). Firstly, a generalized SOC theory from the viewpoint of cybernetics is introduced. Then the evolution model of power system and its relative mathematical description, which serves as a concrete example of the proposed generalized SOC, are given. Secondly, five blackout models capturing various critical properties of power systems in different time-scales are listed. Finally, this paper analyzes SOC in power systems, such as, the revelation of criticalities of proposed models in both micro-scale and macro-scale which can be used to assess the security of power system, and cascading failures process.
