Research on Cascading Failures in Complex Network

The study on the cascading failure of complex network is an important branch in the complex network researches. In this paper, the attack strategies used in the researches on the cascading failure of complex network at home and abroad have been summarized. At the same time, the different characteristics of the new attack strategies and the traditional attack strategies have been analyzed. The modeling principles and the methods of the cascading failure model of complex network have been proposed. Furthermore, the research progress of the cascading failure in the complex network is reviewed. The existing problems as well as the future development trends have been pointed out.
