In this paper we propose an alternative way to study robustness and vulnerability of complex
networks, applying a modal analysis. The modal weights of the network nodes are
considered as a measure for their busyness, which is further used for preferential removal
of nodes and attack simulation. Analyses of the attack vulnerability are carried out for several
generic graphs, generated according to ER and BA algorithms, as well as for some
examples of manmade networks. It was found that a modal weight based attack causes significant
disintegration of manmade networks by removing a small fraction of the busiest
nodes, comparable to the one based on the node degree and betweenness centrality.
