Grid congestion stymies climate benefit from U.S. vehicle electrification
Chao Duan, Adilson E. Motter
Averting catastrophic global warming requires decisive action to decarbonize key sectors. Vehicle electrification, alongside renewable energy integration, is a long-term strategy t…
On the Popov-Belevitch-Hautus tests for functional observability and output controllability
Arthur N. Montanari, Chao Duan, Adilson E. Motter
Functional observability and output controllability are properties that establish the conditions for the partial estimation and partial control of the system state, respectively. I…
Duality between controllability and observability for target control and estimation in networks
Arthur N. Montanari, Chao Duan, Adilson E. Motter
Output controllability and functional observability are properties that enable, respectively, the control and estimation of part of the state vector. These notions are of utmost im…
Optimal flock formation induced by agent heterogeneity
Arthur N. Montanari, Ana Elisa D. Barioni, Chao Duan +1
The study of flocking in biological systems has identified conditions for self-organized collective behavior, inspiring the development of decentralized strategies to coordinate th…
