The scale of the electric cyber physical system (ECPS) is continuously extending, and the existing cascade failure models ignore both the information flow and power flow transferring characteristics and also lack effective survivability analysis. In this paper, the quantitative evaluation method for cascading failure of ECPS survivability considering optimal load allocation is proposed. Firstly, according to the system topological structure and correlation, the degree-betweenness weighted correlation matrix of ECPS is established by defining the degree function as well as the electric betweenness, and the formal representation of coupled ECPS network model is realized. Secondly, based on the structural connectivity change and risk propagation range of ECPS cascade failure, the survivability evaluation model is designed by taking into account the constraints such as node load capacity limitation, information flow optimal allocation strategy, power flow optimization equation, and system safety operation. Finally, the firefly algorithm with chaotic Lévy flight is proposed to solve the evaluation model efficiently. The case study vividly shows that the evaluation method can effectively quantify the survivability of ECPS and thus enhance the evaluation efficiency of large-scale coupled systems.

As cyber physical system security is not satisfactory, the security of a particular infrastructure depends on both internal and other related vulnerabilities. Communications between components in the cyber and physical realms lead to unintentional information flow. This chapter describes the difficult communications that occurs between the cyber and physical domains and their impact on security. Assailants may be competent to initiate exclusive attacks to cyber physical systems. There are several types of attacks that affect the interactions between the cyber and physical devices, which might be in a passive way or in an active method. Even though the communication provides authenticity and confidentiality, a few attacks form some threats against ad hoc routing protocols as well as location-based security systems. It has been said that many attacks modify the activities of the targeted control system.

This paper conducted the EN-1 ionic liquid improved soil comparison and evaluation between the stabilization soil and the stabilized aggregate materials in order to analyze its economic cost and solve the issues of road base material selection with the multiple influence factors. Firstly analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to establish the hierarchical structure of the decision index and the weight of each indicator in an index layer. Secondly the fuzzy relation matrix of the evaluation criteria were determined by expert evaluation method, and then a comprehensive fuzzy evaluation model can be established for the selection of road base materials. Finally, based on the comprehensive sequencing of different materials derived from fuzzy mathematical calculations, the optimal selection can be achieved. The proposed evaluation model comprehended the availability of material, construction requirements, load capacity, durability, energy consumption, environment protection and material cost etc. This research provided a theoretical basis as well as an effective and practical solution for the future development of highway construction in China.
