Branching Process Models for the Exponentially Increasing Portions of Cascading Failure Blackouts

Branching Process Models for the Exponentially Increasing Portions of Cascading Failure Blackouts
We introduce branching process models in discrete and continuous time for the exponentially increasing phase of cascading blackouts. Cumulative line trips from real blackout data have portions consistent with these branching process models. Some initial calculations identifying parameters and using a branching process model to estimate blackout probabilities are illustrated.
