In this paper, fault detection problems for linear uncertain systems are studied. Instead of designing fault detection systems from the viewpoint of increasing the system robustness against unknown inputs and the sensitivity to the faults, an approach is proposed, which allows us to design fault detection systems in such a way that the missed detection rate is minimized for a given false alarm ...

The paper presents a mathematical base modeling combined to Modified-Winding -Function-Approach (MWFA) for eccentricity fault detection of a round-rotor synchronous machine. For this aim, a 6-pole machine is considered, and the machine inductances are computed by MWFA in healthy and also under eccentricity fault. A numerical discrete-time method has been proposed to machine modeling in voltage-...

This paper presents the fault detection algorithm using regression method for plural indoor units faults of multi-heat pump system under heating mode. To develop the fault detection algorithm, experiment was performed under no fault mode. Total 65 experimental data were obtained from the experiment. Regression models for five heat exchangers which including one outdoor unit and four indoor unit...

In this paper, a simulation-based method is proposed for optimal placement of vibration sensors for the purpose of fault detection in a centrifugal pump. The centrifugal pump is modeled to investigate the effect of vane tip fault on fluid flow patterns numerically. Pressure pulsations are investigated at different locations at the inner surface of the pump before and after the presence of the f...

An approach for implementation of control system with anti-windup compensation using fault detection multifiltering is presented. The residual signal used for anti-windup compensation is obtained from a filter bank (i.e. multifiltering) for fault detection, thus it is not necessary its explicit measurement. This residual signal is considered as a fault, in order to design the fault detection fi...

Fault zones and fault-related fracture systems control the mechanical behaviors and fluid-flow properties of the Earth’s crust. Furthermore, nowadays, modeling is being increasingly used in order to understand the behavior of rock masses, and to determine their characteristics. In this work, fault zones and fracture patterns are reviewed, and also comprehensive studies are carried out on the fr...

The robust fault detection filter design problem for singular TS fuzzy systems with time-delay is studied. Using an observer-based fuzzy fault detection filter as the residual generator, the fault detection filter design is converted to an H∞ filtering problem such that the generated residual is the H∞ estimation of the fault. Sufficient conditions are given, which guarantee the robust H∞ fault...

Fault detection and fault isolation for systems including parametric faults is considered in this paper. By using a linear fractional transformation (LFT) description of parametric fault systems, the systems are transformed into equivalent systems including additive fault signals instead. The theory for systems including additive faults is extended to handle the parametric fault case in the sam...

Forest fires are amongst the significant causes threatening our environment degradation nowadays. Current fire detection systems lack the capability of fire triggering detection from its early stages. Wireless sensor networks (WSN) as a solution letting to gather sensory data measurements, such as humidity and temperature, from all points of forest continuously, and, provide reliable and depend...

Faults and errors are an unavoidable aspect of high performance computing systems. Emerging exascale systems will contain billions of hardware components and complex software stacks. In addition, higher fabrication density and power challenges will further compound fault detection, management and recovery. Efficient fault tolerance and resiliency frameworks are thus of immense importance in the...
