“…Like other modern infrastructures, traffic networks are complex and are becoming increasingly connected with traffic lights, road sensors, and vehicles exchanging information with each other. This interconnectedness-though useful at many levels-has also increased the attack surface for potential attackers that can significantly disrupt the traffic by taking control of a few network components, such as signal lights or sensors [6], [7], [44]. Recent studies outline the scope of the damage that can be caused by an adversary having an access to the traffic control infrastructure [45].…”

As the Industrial Internet of Things (IIot) becomes more prevalent in critical application domains, ensuring security and resilience in the face of cyber-attacks is becoming an issue of paramount importance. Cyber-attacks against critical infrastructures, for example, against smart water-distribution and transportation systems, pose serious threats to public health and safety. Owing to the severity of these threats, a variety of security techniques are available. However, no single technique can address the whole spectrum of cyber-attacks that may be launched by a determined and resourceful attacker. In light of this, we consider a multi-pronged approach for designing secure and resilient IIoT systems, which integrates redundancy, diversity, and hardening techniques. We introduce a framework for quantifying cyber-security risks and optimizing IIoT design by determining security investments in redundancy, diversity, and hardening. To demonstrate the applicability of our framework, we present two case studies in water distribution and transportation systems. Our numerical evaluation shows that integrating redundancy, diversity, and hardening can lead to reduced security risk at the same cost.

“…There are very few works in existing literature that focus on cyber-attack related issues in DPCPSs. For example, a PDE-based framework is used to analyze the impact of automotive cyber-attacks on highways in [16]. In [17], a PDE model is utilized to evaluate the capability of attackers to launch attacks on the freeway traffic control system.…”

Security of Distributed Parameter Cyber-Physical Systems (DPCPSs) is of critical importance in the face of cyber-attack threats. Although security aspects of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) modelled by Ordinary differential Equations (ODEs) have been extensively explored during the past decade, security of DPCPSs has not received its due attention despite its safety-critical nature. In this work, we explore the security aspects of DPCPSs from a system theoretic viewpoint. Specifically, we focus on DPCPSs modelled by linear parabolic Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) subject to cyber-attacks in actuation channel. First, we explore the detectability of such attacks and derive conditions for stealthy attacks. Next, we develop a design framework for cyber-attack detection algorithms based on output injection observers. Such attack detection algorithms explicitly consider stability, robustness and attack sensitivity in their design. Finally, theoretical analysis and simulation studies are performed to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

“…The control algorithm of linear matrix inequality (LMI)‐based fractional‐order surface for sliding‐mode controller of a class of uncertain fractional‐order nonlinear systems (FO‐NSs) has a good effect . Ghanavati considered scenarios wherein a group of malicious vehicles on a highway perform a cooperative attack with the motive of creating undesirable wave effects among other vehicles on the highway . In order to improve vehicle lateral dynamics performance with active steering and active braking, Solmaz presented a robust controller design methodology for vehicle rollover prevention utilizing active steering .…”

Chassis integrated control can significantly improve vehicle handling stability and comfort. Because of the complexity of the problem, it has attracted significant research attention. We built a vehicle nonlinear dynamic model with multi‐degree freedom, including body movement, wheel movement, and electronically controlled hydraulic power steering system. We compared the magic formula tire model, Dugoff tire model, brush tire model, and LuGre dynamic friction tire model and steady model. The precision of the model was verified by a comparison between simulation results and the real vehicle test results. Then, based on the vehicle dynamics model, an AFS (active front steering) controller was designed based on sliding mode variable structure control, and an AFS and ESP (electronic stability program) integrated coordination controller was proposed. Finally, based on the nonlinear tire model and multi‐DOF (degree of freedom) vehicle model, sinusoidal and step steering angle input simulation analysis was proposed on different road friction coefficients. The results show that the vehicle has better response characteristics with coordinated control strategy when compared with AFS and ESP only control. The evidence suggests that the proposed integrated control system in this paper can improve vehicle stability and safety.
