Closed-loop turbulence control is a critical enabler of aerodynamic drag reduction, lift
increase, mixing enhancement, and noise reduction. Current and future applications have …

The concept of system resilience is important and popular—in fact, hyper-popular over the
last few years. Clarifying the technical meanings and foundations of the concept of resilience …

We propose a definition of infrastructure resilience that is tied to the operation (or function) of
an infrastructure as a system of interacting components and that can be objectively …

For many years the research community has attempted to model the Internet in order to
better understand its behaviour and improve its performance. Since much of the structural …

Complex networks are everywhere, such as the power grid network, the airline network, the
protein-protein interaction network, and the road network. The networks are 'robust yet …
