Classical sliding mode design approaches assume the transfer function matrix between the driving signal and the measured output of interest must be minimum phase and relative degree one. For the control case, the driving signal will be the control input and for the observer problem the driving signal is likely to be an unknown input which the observer seeks to reconstruct. This chapter demonstr...

One of the major challenges in robotic arms is to diagnosis sensor fault. To address this challenge, this paper presents an LPV approach. Initially, the dynamics of a two-link manipulator is modelled with a polytopic linear parameter varying structure and then by using a descriptor system approach and a robust design of a suitable unknown input observer by means of pole placement method along w...

The anode state of charge (SOC) and degradation information pertaining to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is crucial for understanding battery over time. This about each cell in a pack can help prolong the pack’s life cycle. Because limited observability, estimating capacity fade difficult. task even more challenging cells pack, as current through individual not constant when are connected paralle...

In this paper, in order to increase the efficiency, to reduce the cost and to prevent the failures of wind turbines, which lead to an extensive break down, a robust fault diagnosis system is proposed for V47/660kW wind turbine operated in Manjil wind farm, Gilan province, Iran. According to the acquired data from Iran wind turbine industry, common faults of the wind turbine such as sensor fault...
