Abstract

This work proposes a network science-based analysis tool for the qualification of controllability and observability of HENs. With the proposed methodology, the main characteristics of HEN design methods are determined, the effect of structural properties of HENs on their dynamical behaviour is revealed, and the potentials of the network-based HEN representations are discussed. Our findings are based on the systematic analysis of almost 50 benchmark problems related to 20 different design methodologies.
