Freeway traffic control is a broad research area, not only interesting for its applicative
perspective, but also highly motivating for theoretical investigations. This research topic has …

Resilience has become a key aspect in the design of contemporary infrastructure networks.
This comes as a result of ever-increasing loads, limited physical capacity, and fast-growing …

In many parts of the world, electric power systems have seen a significant shift toward
generation from renewable energy and natural gas. Because of their ability to flexibly adjust …

This book explores the development of PDE (partial differential equation) backstep**
controllers for the suppression of stop-and-go instabilities and oscillations in congested …

We propose a macroscopic traffic network flow model suitable for analysis as a dynamical
system, and we qualitatively analyze equilibrium flows as well as convergence. Flows at a …

Why this book now? A key direction for research in systems and control involves
engineering systems. These are highly distributed collective systems with humans in the …

Strong resilience properties of dynamical networks are analyzed for distributed routing
policies. The latter are characterized by the property that the way the outflow at a non …

This paper investigates the throughput behavior of single-commodity dynamical flow
networks governed by monotone distributed routing policies. The networks are modeled as …

Many of today's engineered systems are tightly interconnected with their users, and in many
cases, system performance depends greatly on user behavior [1]. As a result, the traditional …

We study the use of the System Optimum (SO) Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) problem to
design optimal traffic flow controls for freeway networks as modeled by the Cell …
