The main aim of this paper is to propose a robust fault-tolerant control for a three degree of freedom (DOF) mechanical crane by using a convex quasi-Linear Parameter Varying (qLPV) approach for modeling the crane and a passive fault-tolerant scheme. The control objective is to minimize the load oscillations while the desired path is tracked. The convex qLPV model is obtained by considering the nonlinear sector approach, which can represent exactly the nonlinear system under the bounded nonlinear terms. To improve the system safety, tolerance to partial actuator faults is considered. Performance requirements of the tracking control system are specified in an H∞ criteria that guarantees robustness against measurement noise, and partial faults. As a result, a set of Linear Matrix Inequalities is derived to compute the controller gains. Numerical experiments on a realistic 3 DOF crane model confirm the applicability of the control scheme.

With the rapid development of computer science and information and communication technology (ICT), increasingly intelligent, and complex systems have been applied to industries as well as human life. Fault-tolerant control (FTC) has, therefore, become one of the most important topics attracting attention from both engineers and researchers to maintain system performances when faults occur. The ultimate goal of this study was to develop a sensor fault-tolerant control (SFTC) to enhance the robust position tracking control of a class of electro-hydraulic actuators called mini motion packages (MMPs), which are widely used for applications requiring large force-displacement ratios. First, a mathematical model of the MMP system is presented, which is then applied in the position control process of the MMP system. Here, a well-known proportional, integrated and derivative (PID) control algorithm is employed to ensure the positional response to the reference position. Second, an unknown input observer (UIO) is designed to estimate the state vector and sensor faults using a linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization algorithm. Then an SFTC is used to deal with sensor faults of the MMP system. The SFTC is formed of the fault detection and the fault compensation with the goal of determining the location, time of occurrence, and magnitude of the faults in the fault signal compensation process. Finally, numerical simulations were run to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed approach compared to traditional tracking control.

Fault Tolerant Control Design For Polytopic LPV SystemsThis paper deals with a Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) strategy for polytopic Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems. The main contribution consists in the design of a Static Output Feedback (SOF) dedicated to such systems in the presence of multiple actuator faults/failures. The controllers are synthesized through Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) in both fault-free and faulty cases in order to preserve the system closed-loop stability. Hence, this paper provides a new sufficient (but not necessary) condition for the solvability of the stabilizing output feedback control problem. An example illustrates the effectiveness and performances of the proposed FTC method.

Takagi Sugeno

In this work, we investigate the problem of control for nonlinear systems represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models affected by both sensor and actuator faults subject to an unknown bounded disturbances (UBD). For this, we design an adaptive observer to estimate state, sensor and actuator fault vectors simultaneously despite the presence of external disturbances. Based on this observer, we develop a fault tolerant control (FTC) law not only to stabilize closed loop system, but also to compensate the fault effects. For the observer-based controller design, we propose less conservative conditions formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Moreover, both observer and controller gains are calculated via solving a set of LMIs only in single step. Finally, comparative results and an application to single-link flexible joint robot are afforded to prove the efficiency of the proposed design.

Autonomous Helicopter

In this paper, an adaptive robust fault-tolerant control scheme is developed for attitude tracking control of a medium-scale unmanned autonomous helicopter with rotor flapping dynamics, external unknown disturbances and actuator faults. For the convenience of control design, the actuator dynamics with respect to the tail rotor are introduced. The adaptive fault observer and robust item are employed to observe the actuator faults and eliminate the effect of external disturbances, respectively. A backstepping-based robust fault-tolerant control scheme is designed with the aim of obtaining satisfactory tracking performance and closed-loop system stability is proved via Lyapunov analysis, which guarantees the convergence of all closed-loop system signals. Simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

In this paper, the stabilization problem for the 3 Degree of Freedom (3-DOF) hovering system of Quadrotor with actuator faults is investigated. To handle the helicopter system, an H robust fault-tolerant state feedback control is proposed. In addition, an adaptive method is combined with fault-tolerant H control to improve the flight performance. A more practical actuator fault is built, and the model of the system is presented. The design operates in Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) technique. Finally, the design was verified on both MATLAB and 3-DOF platform to exam the feasibility and stability of the method.

Generation Capacity

The installed wind energy generation capacity has been increasing dramatically all over the world. However, most wind turbines are installed in hostile environments, where regular operation needs to be ensured by effective fault tolerant control methods. An adaptive observer-based fault tolerant control scheme is proposed in this article to address the sensor and actuator faults that usually occur on the core subsystems of wind turbines. The fast adaptive fault estimation (FAFE) algorithm is adopted in the adaptive observers to accurately and rapidly located the faults. Based on the states and faults estimated by the adaptive observers, the state feedback fault tolerant controllers are designed to stabilize the system and compensate for the faults. The gain matrices of the controllers are calculated by the pole placement method. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed fault tolerant control scheme with the FAFE algorithm stabilizes the faulty system effectively and performs better than the baseline on the benchmark model of wind turbines.
