Fault Detection, Estimation/Reconstruction, and Fault-Tolerant Control: Theory and Practice

Fault Tolerant Control and Fault Detection and Isolation

When a fault occurs in a system, the main problem to be addressed is to raise an alarm, ideally diagnose what fault has occurred, and then decide how to deal with it. The problem of detecting a fault, finding the source/location and then taking appropriate action is the basis of fault tolerant control. In this chapter, an introduction to fault tolerant control (FTC) and fault detection and isol...

Integrated Fault-Detection and Fault-Tolerant Control of Process Systems

The problem of implementing fault-tolerant control to nonlinear processes with input constraints subject to control actuator failures is considered, and an approach predicated upon the idea of integrating fault-detection, feedback and supervisory control is presented and demonstrated. To illustrate the main idea behind the proposed approach, availability of measurements of all the process state...

Fault Diagnosis and Fault-tolerant Control

Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant SVPWM Technique of Six-phase Converter under Open-Switch Fault

In this paper, a new open-switch fault diagnosis method is proposed for the six-phase AC-DC converter based on the difference between the phase current and the corresponding reference using an adaptive threshold. The open-switch faults are detected without any additional equipment and complicated calculations, since the proposed fault detection method is integrated with the controller required ...
