Cascading failures in isolated networks have been widely studied the past decade, cascading interdependent are attracting more and attention recently, but previous studies focus on topological effects, neglecting loads which present most real networks. Considering effect of loads, two-layered BA network model failure were reestablished this paper, based these, robustness under random intentional attacks effects average degree suppressing researched. The simulation results show that compared to failures, is vulnerable attacks; coupled state than while therere no obvious differences performs robust resist if each layer hold larger degree.
