Abstract
Traffic congestion is a global issue, which occurs during rush hour but also in situations of emergency causing massive congestion. This paper proposes a method for building a weighted road network by using the real-time traffic situation and the inherent characteristics of Urban Road Networks (URNs). To research the cascading failure vulnerability of URNs three kinds of node importance indexes are constructed from the structure, function, and traffic flow characteristics. Then the feasibility and validity of the proposed model are verified by taking Shanghai road networks (SRNs) as an example. The results indicate that the highest betweenness node-based attack causes the most damage to the SRNS of different types of attacks, and the SRNS cascade fails with the greatest speed and scale. Furthermore, we explore that the correlations between network vulnerability indicators, and suggest significant differences at different times during cascading failures of the weighted road network.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection (IJCIP) was launched in 2008, with the primary aim of publishing scholarly papers of the highest quality in all areas of critical infrastructure protection. Of particular interest are articles that weave science, technology, law and policy to craft sophisticated yet practical solutions for securing assets in the various critical infrastructure sectors. These critical infrastructure sectors include: information technology, telecommunications, energy, banking and finance, transportation systems, chemicals, critical manufacturing, agriculture and food, defense industrial base, public health and health care, national monuments and icons, drinking water and water treatment systems, commercial facilities, dams, emergency services, nuclear reactors, materials and waste, postal and shipping, and government facilities. Protecting and ensuring the continuity of operation of critical infrastructure assets are vital to national security, public health and safety, economic vitality, and societal wellbeing.
The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to:
1. Analysis of security challenges that are unique or common to the various infrastructure sectors.
2. Identification of core security principles and techniques that can be applied to critical infrastructure protection.
3. Elucidation of the dependencies and interdependencies existing between infrastructure sectors and techniques for mitigating the devastating effects of cascading failures.
4. Creation of sophisticated, yet practical, solutions, for critical infrastructure protection that involve mathematical, scientific and engineering techniques, economic and social science methods, and/or legal and public policy constructs.
