This work considers the problem of control actuator fault detection and isolation and fault-tolerant control for a multi-input multi-output nonlinear system subject to constraints on the manipulated inputs and proposes a fault detection and isolation filter and controller reconfiguration design. The implementation of the fault detection and isolation filters and reconfiguration strategy are dem...

Induction motors (IMs) are commonly used in various industrial applications. A spectrum synch (SS) technique is proposed in this chapter for early IM defect detection using electric current signals; fault detection in this work will focus on defects in rolling element bearings and rotor bars, which together account for more than half of IM imperfections. In bearing fault detection, the proposed...

A general design technique for achieving single faulttolerant asynchronous sequential circuits is described. The design procedures apply over a large range of fault conditions and are extremely easy to use. Generally, less than three times the logic required for a single copy is needed to achieve single fault tolerance. In addition to fault tolerance, real time fault detection is easily achieve...

For fault-tolerant real-time filtering, an efficient two-filter architecture is proposed. In the two-filter architecture, a host filter is operated permanently. A compression filter is intermittently initialized and operated during prescribed time intervals. to handle measurements susceptible to soft faults. New compression filters are derived based on time-propagated measurement concept. The d...

Fault tolerance is increasingly important in modern autonomous or industrial robots. The ability to detect and tolerate failures allows robots to e ectively cope with internal failures and continue performing designated tasks without the need for immediate human intervention. To support these fault tolerant capabilities, methods of detecting and isolating failures must be perfected. This thesis...

This paper mainly analyses the fault tolerant capability of a combining classifier that uses a K-voting strategy for integrating binary classifiers. From the point view of fault tolerance, we discuss the influence of the failure of binary classifiers on the final output of the combining classifier, and present a theoretical analysis of combination performance under three fault models. The resul...

The KECCAK cryptographic algorithms widely used in embedded circuits to ensure a high level of security to any systems which require hashing as the integrity checking and random number generation. One of the most efficient cryptanalysis techniques against KECCAK implementation is the fault injection attacks. Until now, only a few fault detection schemes for KECCAK have been presented. In this p...

Inspection policies are essential for many types of systems for which the status (functioning or failed) can be determined only by actual inspection. Two types of inspection error may occur. A functioning system may be incorrectly assessed as having failed or a failed system may be incorrectly assessed as functioning. These errors are designated as Types I and II respectively, and their impact ...
