This paper discusses the maneuvering control algorithm based on all-wheel independent driving and steering control techniques for special purpose 6WD/WS vehicles. The maneuvering control algorithms considering superior dynamic characteristics of high power in-wheel motors and independent steering system are designed to perform driving and steering control, vehicle stability control, and fault t...

In this paper, a novel fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed for a class of uncertain multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems based on online fuzzy clustering and identification. The unknown nonlinear function of the system is identified online using an evolving Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model and the fault-tolerant control law is designed based on the identified fuzzy model...

A fault-tolerant 1-spanner is used to preserve all the minimum energy paths after node failures to cope with fault-tolerant topology control problems in wireless ad hoc networks. A fault-tolerant 1-spanner is a graph such that the remaining graph after node failures will not only remain connected, but also have a stretch factor of one. The fault-tolerant 1-spanner is used in a localized and dis...

In this paper the problem of active fault tolerant control design for noisy systems described by Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models is studied. The proposed control strategy is based on the known of the fault estimated and the error between the faulty system state and a reference system state. The considered systems are affected by actuator and sensor faults and have the weighting functions depending o...

Most robot controllers today employ a single processor architecture As robot control requirements become more complex these serial controllers have di culty providing the desired response time Additionally with robots being used in environments that are hazardous or inaccessible to humans fault tolerant robotic systems are particularly desirable A uniprocessor control architecture cannot o er t...

In engineering application the sensor or actuator fault will lead to seriously damage to mechanical systems. The research of sensor or actuator fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control is very important to improve the safety and reliability of the system. The paper investigates the fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant methods of vehicle suspension system with Magnetorheological (MR) dampers (ac...

This paper discusses the modeling and analysis of three major fault-tolerant software system architec-tures: DRB (Distributed Recovery Blocks), NVP (N-Version Programming) and NSCP (N Self-Checking Programming). In the system-level reliability modeling domain, fault tree analysis techniques and Markov reward modeling techniques are combined to incorporate transient and permanent hardware faults...

Even though real-time systems have the stringent constraint of completing tasks before their deadlines, many existing real-time operating systems do not implement fault tolerance capabilities. In this paper we summarize fault tolerant real-time scheduling policy for dynamic tasks with ready times and deadlines. Our focus in this paper is the implementation, which includes fault-tolerant schedul...

To improve the reliability of the motion control system for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), sensor fault tolerant control based on replace control was talked about. This paper analyzed the decoupling controller and the sensor system firstly, and proposed a fault tolerant control strategy based on the ideas of replacing the fault sensor outputs by the sliding-mode observer outputs (also ...
