Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace Vehicles by Ali Zolghadri,David Henry,Jérôme Cieslak,Denis Efimov,Philippe Goupil Pdf
Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace demonstrates the attractive potential of recent developments in control for resolving such issues as flight performance, self protection and extended-life structures. Importantly, the text deals with a number of practically significant considerations: tuning, complexity of design, real-time capability, evaluation of worst-case performance, robustness in harsh environments, and extensibility when development or adaptation is required. Coverage of such issues helps to draw the advanced concepts arising from academic research back towards the technological concerns of industry. Initial coverage of basic definitions and ideas and a literature review gives way to a treatment of electrical flight control system failures: oscillatory failure, runaway, and jamming. Advanced fault detection and diagnosis for linear and linear-parameter-varying systems are described. Lastly recovery strategies appropriate to remaining actuator/sensor/communications resources are developed. The authors exploit experience gained in research collaboration with academic and major industrial partners to validate advanced fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control techniques with realistic benchmarks or real-world aeronautical and space systems. Consequently, the results presented in Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace, will be of interest in both academic and aerospatial-industrial milieux.
Fault Diagnosis and Reconfiguration in Flight Control Systems by C. Hajiyev,F. Caliskan Pdf
The problem of fault diagnosis and reconfigurable control is a new and actually developing field of science and engineering. The subject becomes more interesting since there is an increasing demand for the navigation and control systems of aerospace vehicles, automated actuators etc. to be more safe and reliable. Nowadays, the problems of fault detection and isolation and reconfigurable control attract the attention the scientists in the world. The subject is emphasized in the recent international congresses such as IF AC World Congresses (San Francisco-1996, Beijing-1999, and Barcelona-2002) and lMEKO World Congresses (Tampere-1997, Osaka-1999, Vienna-2000), and also in the international conferences on fault diagnosis such as SAFEPROCESS Conferences (Hull-1997, Budapest-2000). The presented methods in the book are based on linear and nonlinear dynamic mathematical models of the systems. Technical objects and systems stated by these models are very large, and include various control systems, actuators, sensors, computer systems, communication systems, and mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical and electronic devices. The analytical fault diagnosis techniques of these objects have been developed for several decades. Many of those techniques are based on the use of the results of modem control theory. This is natural, because it is known that fault diagnosis process in control systems is considered as a part of general control process. xxii In organization of fault diagnosis of control systems, the use of the concepts and methods of modem control theory including concepts of state space, modeling, controllability, observability, estimation, identification, and filtering is very efficient.
Fault Tolerant Control Schemes Using Integral Sliding Modes by Mirza Tariq Hamayun,Christopher Edwards,Halim Alwi Pdf
The key attribute of a Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) system is its ability to maintain overall system stability and acceptable performance in the face of faults and failures within the feedback system. In this book Integral Sliding Mode (ISM) Control Allocation (CA) schemes for FTC are described, which have the potential to maintain close to nominal fault-free performance (for the entire system response), in the face of actuator faults and even complete failures of certain actuators. Broadly an ISM controller based around a model of the plant with the aim of creating a nonlinear fault tolerant feedback controller whose closed-loop performance is established during the design process. The second approach involves retro-fitting an ISM scheme to an existing feedback controller to introduce fault tolerance. This may be advantageous from an industrial perspective, because fault tolerance can be introduced without changing the existing control loops. A high fidelity benchmark model of a large transport aircraft is used to demonstrate the efficacy of the FTC schemes. In particular a scheme based on an LPV representation has been implemented and tested on a motion flight simulator.
Automatic Flight Control Systems by Thomas Lombaerts Pdf
The history of flight control is inseparably linked to the history of aviation itself. Since the early days, the concept of automatic flight control systems has evolved from mechanical control systems to highly advanced automatic fly-by-wire flight control systems which can be found nowadays in military jets and civil airliners. Even today, many research efforts are made for the further development of these flight control systems in various aspects. Recent new developments in this field focus on a wealth of different aspects. This book focuses on a selection of key research areas, such as inertial navigation, control of unmanned aircraft and helicopters, trajectory control of an unmanned space re-entry vehicle, aeroservoelastic control, adaptive flight control, and fault tolerant flight control. This book consists of two major sections. The first section focuses on a literature review and some recent theoretical developments in flight control systems. The second section discusses some concepts of adaptive and fault-tolerant flight control systems. Each technique discussed in this book is illustrated by a relevant example.

Fault Detection and Fault-Tolerant Control Using Sliding Modes by Halim Alwi,Christopher Edwards,Chee Pin Tan Pdf
Fault Detection and Fault-tolerant Control Using Sliding Modes is the first text dedicated to showing the latest developments in the use of sliding-mode concepts for fault detection and isolation (FDI) and fault-tolerant control in dynamical engineering systems. It begins with an introduction to the basic concepts of sliding modes to provide a background to the field. This is followed by chapters that describe the use and design of sliding-mode observers for FDI using robust fault reconstruction. The development of a class of sliding-mode observers is described from first principles through to the latest schemes that circumvent minimum-phase and relative-degree conditions. Recent developments have shown that the field of fault tolerant control is a natural application of the well-known robustness properties of sliding-mode control. A family of sliding-mode control designs incorporating control allocation, which can deal with actuator failures directly by exploiting redundancy, is presented. Various realistic case studies, specifically highlighting aircraft systems and including results from the implementation of these designs on a motion flight simulator, are described. A reference and guide for researchers in fault detection and fault-tolerant control, this book will also be of interest to graduate students working with nonlinear systems and with sliding modes in particular. Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage the transfer of technology in control engineering. The rapid development of control technology has an impact on all areas of the control discipline. The series offers an opportunity for researchers to present an extended exposition of new work in all aspects of industrial control.
Fault Identification for Real Time Flight Controller Reconfiguration by Jayalakshmi Nagam Pdf
Fault Identification for Real Time Flight Controller Reconfiguration refers to the process of detecting, diagnosing, and mitigating faults in a flight control system in real-time. This is crucial for ensuring the safety and performance of aircraft. The process involves monitoring sensor data and analyzing it to detect any anomalies or failures in the system. Once a fault is detected, a diagnosis is performed to determine the cause of the fault and the appropriate reconfiguration strategy is implemented to mitigate its effects. This can include switching to redundant systems, adjusting control parameters, or other adaptive control techniques. The goal is to maintain the safe and stable operation of the aircraft while minimizing any impact on performance. Flight controller reconfiguration refers to the process of adapting the control system of an aircraft to changing conditions or system failures. The goal is to maintain the safe and stable operation of the aircraft while minimizing any impact on performance. This can be achieved through a variety of methods such as switching to redundant systems, adjusting control parameters, or implementing other adaptive control techniques. The process of reconfiguration may be triggered by a variety of factors, including system failures, changes in flight conditions, or the need to optimize performance. The reconfiguration process is typically performed in real-time and can be based on both model-based and data-driven approaches. A key aspect of flight controller reconfiguration is the ability to detect and diagnose faults in the system and to implement the appropriate reconfiguration strategy to mitigate their effects. Fault Tolerant Flight Control (FTFC) systems deal with the detection and diagnosis of faults and look at the task of regaining control in the presence of the fault. Some faults are difficult to detect with the onboard monitoring systems, with the result that these faults endanger the safety and reliability of an aircraft. The study of improvement in safety, redundancy, and adapting the Flight Control Laws (FCL) after the occurrence of faults has fascinated several investigators in the previous two decades. The literature study illustrates different fault diagnosis and FTFC approaches. The main research direction is to detect and isolate fault reliably, carry out real-time identification of the plant, and real-time control law (CLAW) reconfiguration. The main contribution of this thesis is towards these aspects. In this chapter, the basic terminologies are explained. The research work carried out in this thesis is in the area of FTFC systems.
