This paper proposes an actuator fault detection method for unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) dynamics with four mecanum wheels. The actuator fault detection method is based on unknown input observers for linear parameter varying systems. The technical novelty of current work compared to similar work in the literature is that wheel frictions are directly taken into account in the dynamics of UGV, and unknown input observers are developed accordingly. Including the wheel friction, the vehicle dynamics are in the form of linear parameter varying systems. Friction estimation is also discussed in this work, and the effect of friction mismatch was quantitatively investigated by simulations. The effectiveness of proposed method was evaluated under various operation scenarios of the UGV.

This paper addresses the problem of observer-based fault reconstruction and accommodation for polytopic linear parameter-varying (LPV) systems. A polytopic representation of an LPV system subject to actuator faults and external disturbances is first established; then, a novel polytopic learning unknown-input observer (LUIO) is constructed for simultaneous state estimation and robust fault reconstruction. The stability of the presented LUIO is proved using Lyapunov stability theory together with H∞ techniques. Further, using reconstructed fault information, a reconfigurable fault-tolerant controller is designed to compensate for the influence of actuator faults by stabilizing the closed-loop system. At last, an aircraft example is employed to illustrate the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed techniques.
