Graph-theoretic approaches for analyzing the resilience of distributed control systems: A tutorial and survey

M Pirani, A Mitra, S Sundaram - Automatica, 2023 - Elsevier
As the scale of distributed control systems over networks increases and interactions
between different subsystems become more sophisticated, questions of the resilience of …

[HTML][HTML] An overview of structural systems theory

G Ramos, AP Aguiar, S Pequito - Automatica, 2022 - Elsevier
This paper provides an overview of the research conducted in the context of structural (or
structured) systems. These are parametrized models used to assess and design system …

Structural controllability of symmetric networks

T Menara, DS Bassett… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The theory of structural controllability allows us to assess controllability of a network as a
function of its interconnection graph and independently of the edge weights. Yet, existing …

A unifying framework for strong structural controllability

J Jia, HJ Van Waarde, HL Trentelman… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This article deals with strong structural controllability of linear systems. In contrast to the
existing work, the structured systems studied in this article have a so-called …

Differential initial-value privacy and observability of linear dynamical systems

L Wang, IR Manchester, J Trumpf, G Shi - Automatica, 2023 - Elsevier
This paper studies the relationship between the differential privacy of initial values and the
observability for general linear dynamical systems with Gaussian process and sensor …

Fixed node determination and analysis in directed acyclic graphs of structured networks

N Park, YU Kim, HS Ahn - Journal of the Franklin Institute, 2024 - Elsevier
This paper explores the conditions for determining fixed nodes in structured networks,
specifically focusing on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). We introduce several necessary …

Structural controllability of directed signed networks

Y Guan, A Li, L Wang - IEEE Transactions on Control of …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this article, the structural controllability of multiagent networks defined over directed
signed graphs is investigated, where the agents are divided into leaders and followers, and …

On the structural target controllability of undirected networks

J Li, X Chen, S Pequito, GJ Pappas… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this article, we study the target controllability problem of networked dynamical systems, in
which we are tasked to steer a subset of network nodes toward a desired objective. More …

Synthesis of output-feedback controllers for mixed traffic systems in presence of disturbances and uncertainties

SS Mousavi, S Bahrami… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we study mixed traffic systems that move along a single-lane ring-road or open-
road. The traffic flow forms a platoon, which includes a number of heterogeneous human …

Strong structural controllability and observability of individual nodes: A graph-theoretical approach

NJ Park, YU Kim, HS Ahn… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this article, we first establish definitions of structural controllability and strong structural
observability for a single state node, based on the conditions of strong structural …
