Therefore, in case of cascading failures (and especially severe natural disasters), a domino-like power grid collapse is inevitable.
For the case of activity cascade sizes, a KS test rejects the hypothesis that they are the same, indicating that high cognitive content have a slightly larger likelihood of involving more spreaders, but not more listeners.
For the case of information cascades, the distributions of negative and neutral cascade sizes are similar (KS p-value 0.285), but the null hypothesis that they have the same size as the positive ones could be rejected.
For the case of information cascades, the same result seems to hold.
In the case of supersonic cascades, the aerodynamic instability of the blade motion is significantly affected by the unsteady displacement of shock reflection points, which appears in the linearized formulation as fluctuating concentrated forces acting at mean reflection points.
On the other hand, in the case of systems with cascade structure but fixed at one side, the dynamical flexibility has the alternating: zero, pole, zero, pole, etc. respectively.
The case of the MAPK cascade in yeast may just be one example among others and it is likely that in the near future, more scaffold proteins using the same basic and simple mechanisms will be found.
Tannenbaum and Shakhnovich have termed this effect the error cascade [ 66], and in fact, the survival-of-the-flattest effect [ 32, 33, 46] can be considered as a special case of this error cascade.
While speed is sacrificed in our simulations to improve fidelity, biological mechanisms exist that can speed the reaction network without loss of fidelity such as high-affinity scaffolding in the case of the MAPK cascade [ 38].
