This paper deals with the design of a fault tolerant control (FTC) of a quadrotor aircraft system, considering the actuator faults. The attitude dynamic model of quadrotor, taking into account the various parameters which can affect the dynamics of this system in space is presented. Subsequently, based on robust adaptive-backstepping method and taking into account the actuator faults, a new FTC...

A novel fault tolerant control scheme, using model‐based control and time delay control theories, is proposed for flexible satellites with uncertainties and actuator saturation and the stability condition of the scheme is analysed. The moment–of‐inertia uncertainty, actuator faults uncertainty, space environment disturbances and the actuator saturation are...

This chapter proposes a reliable fault-tolerant model predictive control applied to drinking water transport networks. After a fault has occurred, the predictive controller should be redesigned to cope with the fault effect. Before starting to apply the fault-tolerant control strategy, it should be evaluated whether the predictive controller will be able to continue operating after the fault ap...

Some people suffering from diabetes use insulin injection pumps to control the blood glucose level. Sometimes, the fault may occur in the sensor or actuator of these pumps. The main objective of this paper is controlling the blood glucose level at the desired level and fault-tolerant control of these injection pumps. To this end, the eligibility traces algorithm is combined with the sliding mod...

Actuator and sensor faults can cause poor performance or even instability in dynamic systems. In flight control systems for aircraft and spacecraft, such faults can lead to loss of control and serious incidents. Therefore, rapid detection and identification of actuator and sensor faults is important for enhancing flight safety. One approach to fault detection and identification (FDI) in actuato...

The aim of the paper is to design a robust actuator fault-tolerant control for a non-linear discrete-time system. Considered system is described by the Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) model obtained with recurrent neural network. The proposed solution starts with a discretetime quasi-LPV system identification using artificial neural network. Subsequently, the robust controller is proposed, which...

A challenging problem in aircraft engine health management (EHM) system development is to detect and isolate faults in system components (i.e., compressor, turbine), actuators, and sensors. Existing nonlinear EHM methods often deal with component faults, actuator faults, and sensor faults separately, which may potentially lead to incorrect diagnostic decisions and unnecessary maintenance. There...
