BioLogistics and the Struggle for Efficiency: Concepts and Perspectives
Dirk Helbing, Andreas Deutsch, Stefan Diez +8
The growth of world population, limitation of resources, economic problems and environmental issues force engineers to develop increasingly efficient solutions for logistic systems…
Analytical and Numerical Investigation of Ant Behavior Under Crowded Conditions
Karsten Peters, Anders Johansson, Audrey Dussutour +1
Swarm intelligence is widely recognized as a powerful paradigm of self-organized optimization, with numerous examples of successful applications in distributed artificial intellige…
Dynamic Effects Increasing Network Vulnerability to Cascading Failures
Ingve Simonsen, Lubos Buzna, Karsten Peters +2
We study cascading failures in networks using a dynamical flow model based on simple conservation and distribution laws to investigate the impact of transient dynamics caused by th…
Efficient Response to Cascading Disaster Spreading
Lubos Buzna, Karsten Peters, Hendrik Ammoser +2
We study the effectiveness of recovery strategies for a dynamic model of failure spreading in networks. These strategies control the distribution of resources based on information…
Decentralised control of material or traffic flows in networks using phase-synchronisation
Stefan Lämmer, Hiroshi Kori, Karsten Peters +1
We present a self-organising, decentralised control method for material flows in networks. The concept applies to networks where time sharing mechanisms between conflicting flows i…
A hybrid model for chaotic front dynamics: From semiconductors to water tanks
A. Amann, K. Peters, U. Parlitz +2
We present a general method for studying front propagation in nonlinear systems with a global constraint in the language of hybrid tank models. The method is illustrated in the cas…
