Abstract: How to control the cascading failure has become a hot topic in recent years. In this paper, we propose a new matching model of capacity by developing a profit function to defense cascading failures on artificially created scale-free networks and the real network structure of the North American power grid. Results show that our matching model can enhance the network robustness efficiently, which is particularly important for the design of networks to deduce the damage triggered by the cascading failures.
