You Make Me Tremble: A First look at Attacks Against Structural Control Systems

This repository contains the files required to simulate the attacks against structural control systems. It also contains Matlab/Simulink files required to run the experiments with the Quanser system. Each folder contains the specific files needed for every testbed and benchmark.

Requirements

It is required Matlab 2020B to run simulations. The Quanser Quanser Shake Table needs Quarc Real-Time Control Software, and the systems Shake Table II: Bench-scale single-axis motion simulator and two Active Mass Damper: Bench-scale smart structure.

To run the simulations, the following toolboxes are required:

• Parallel toolbox
• Global optimization toolbox
• Control system toolbox

Setting up the experiment

First, connect the Quanser devices. Then select the experiment parameter by running:

main.m

Open DOS or FDI simulink block diagram and pick:

Build model
Connect and run

We present a video of our simulation results here.

Simulations

We include a folder for the simulation of every benchmark and anomaly detection. Each folder has a main.m file to get the results of each benchmark presented in the paper.

Benchmarks

We used bechmarks 3, 13 and 14 from here
