Actuator fault tolerant control design based on a reconfigurable reference input

Didier Theilliol, Cédric Join, Youmin Zhang (2008)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The prospective work reported in this paper explores a new approach to enhance the performance of an active fault tolerant control system. The proposed technique is based on a modified recovery/trajectory control system in which a reconfigurable reference input is considered when performance degradation occurs in the system due to faults in actuator dynamics. An added value of this work is to reduce the energy spent to achieve the desired closed-loop performance. This work is justified...

Fault-tolerant control strategy for actuator faults using LPV techniques: Application to a two degree of freedom helicopter

Saúl Montes de Oca, Vicenç Puig, Marcin Witczak, Łukasz Dziekan (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper, a Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) strategy for Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems that can be used in the case of actuator faults is proposed. The idea of this FTC method is to adapt the faulty plant instead of adapting the controller to the faulty plant. This approach can be seen as a kind of virtual actuator. An integrated FTC design procedure for the fault identification and fault-tolerant control schemes using LPV techniques is provided as well. Fault identification...

Novel fault detection criteria based on linear quadratic control performances

Dušan Krokavec, Anna Filasová (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper proposes a new approach to designing a relatively simple algorithmic fault detection system that is potentially applicable in embedded diagnostic structures. The method blends the LQ control principle with checking and evaluating unavoidable degradation in the sequence of discrete-time LQ control performance index values due to faults in actuators, sensors or system dynamics. Design conditions are derived, and direct computational forms of the algorithms are given. A simulation...

Reconfigurability analysis for reliable fault-tolerant control design

Ahmed Khelassi, Didier Theilliol, Philippe Weber (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper the integration of reliability evaluation in reconfigurability analysis of a fault-tolerant control system is considered. The aim of this work is to contribute to reliable fault-tolerant control design. The admissibility of control reconfigurability is analyzed with respect to reliability requirements. This analysis shows the relationship between reliability and control reconfigurability defined generally through Gramian controllability. An admissible solution for reconfigurability...

Model-free reconfiguration mechanism for fault tolerance

Tushar Jain, Joseph J. Yamé, Dominique Sauter (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The problem of fault tolerant control is studied from the behavioral point of view. In this mathematical framework, the concept of interconnection among the variables describing the system is a key point. The problem is that the behavior we intend to control is not known. Therefore, we are interested in designing a fault accommodation scheme for an unknown behavior through an appropriate behavioral interconnection. Here we deal simply with the trajectories that are generated by the system...

Design of passive fault-tolerant controllers of a quadrotor based on sliding mode theory

Abdel-Razzak Merheb, Hassan Noura, François Bateman (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper, sliding mode control is used to develop two passive fault tolerant controllers for an AscTec Pelican UAV quadrotor. In the first approach, a regular sliding mode controller (SMC) augmented with an integrator uses the robustness property of variable structure control to tolerate partial actuator faults. The second approach is a cascaded sliding mode controller with an inner and outer SMC loops. In this configuration, faults are tolerated in the fast inner loop controlling...

Sliding mode methods for fault detection and fault tolerant control with application to aerospace systems

Christopher Edwards, Halim Alwi, Chee Pin Tan (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Sliding mode methods have been historically studied because of their strong robustness properties with regard to a certain class of uncertainty, achieved by employing nonlinear control/injection signals to force the system trajectories to attain in finite time a motion along a surface in the state-space. This paper will consider how these ideas can be exploited for fault detection (specifically fault signal estimation) and subsequently fault tolerant control. It will also describe applications...

Fault tolerance in networked control systems under intermittent observations

Jean-Philippe Georges, Didier Theilliol, Vincent Cocquempot, Jean-Christophe Ponsart, Christophe Aubrun (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper presents an approach to fault tolerant control based on the sensor masking principle in the case of wireless networked control systems. With wireless transmission, packet losses act as sensor faults. In the presence of such faults, the faulty measurements corrupt directly the behaviour of closed-loop systems. Since the controller aims at cancelling the error between the measurement and its reference input, the real outputs will, in such a networked control system, deviate...

Nonlinear model predictive control of a boiler unit: A fault tolerant control study

Krzysztof Patan, Józef Korbicz (2012)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper deals with a nonlinear model predictive control designed for a boiler unit. The predictive controller is realized by means of a recurrent neural network which acts as a one-step ahead predictor. Then, based on the neural predictor, the control law is derived solving an optimization problem. Fault tolerant properties of the proposed control system are also investigated. A set of eight faulty scenarios is prepared to verify the quality of the fault tolerant control. Based of...
