The problem of fault diagnosis in thrusters of autonomous underwater vehicle is studied. Solution of the problem involves residual generation as a result of mismatch between vehicle behaviour and its reference model behaviour followed by decision making via evaluation of the residual. Sensitivity theory based methods are developed for the design of both residual generator and decision making procedure...
This paper presents a new scheme for actuator fault detection and isolation (FDI) with application to actuator health monitoring on an aircraft. The Single Model Active Fault Detection and Isolation System (SMAC-FDI) efficiently detects and isolates a faulty actuator in a system. This method has a short response time and is robust against model uncertainties, sensor noise, external disturbances. The...
In this paper, the sliding mode approach is used to control of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in the presence of external disturbance and actuator fault. Fault detection unit can detect the actuator fault using a state estimator. Then it reconfigures the structure of controller such that some control performance is achieved. The proposed control structure has the advantage of disturbance...
In this paper, we present a multiple-model based method of analyzing for the longitudinal controller performance loss caused by actuator faults in the aircraft elevator system. More specifically, we consider the effects of the failure-induced elevator actuator bandwidth reduction integrated with the longitudinal flight dynamics. Results of the proposed multiple-model based fault detection, isolation,...
Based on the developed nonlinear dynamic equations of a quadrotor (named as Qball-X4) UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), attitude and trajectory tracking control designs based on an inner/outer loop control structure has been proposed in this paper. Feedback linearization is designed to control the attitude stability in inner loop, traditional PID is designed to follow trajectory in accordance with pre-planned...
