Distributed observer design for interconnected nonlinear systems with faults and disturbances based on dynamic event conditions

This study investigated the observer design schemes for interconnected nonlinear systems with actuator faults, sensor faults, external disturbances, and limited measured resources. A novel effective distributed estimation scheme is presented for the interconnected nonlinear system to estimate the states, faults, and lumped disturbances, simultaneously. To save communication resources and to improve information utilization, an adaptive event condition is designed in the sensor channel, and the triggered values are utilized to design the observer. Especially, to handle the sensor fault, the output is separated into two parts, and the estimation is realized with the help of a normal one. In the first part of this study, a class of interconnected nonlinear systems with partial loss of effectiveness of sensor fault is considered, and an event-based distributed estimation scheme is established. In the second part, a class of more universal feedback interconnected nonlinear with both partial loss sensor fault and bias sensor fault is investigated. An augment system is formulated by an augmented vector composed of state and sensor faults. And then the estimation scheme is realized by utilizing the presented event-based distributed observer. The convergence abilities of both the two conditions are proved and, finally, the estimation performances of the presented observer are verified by a numerical simulation system and an inverted pendulum system.     

Robust fault diagnosis of disturbed linear systems via a sliding mode high order differentiator

A fault estimator for linear systems affected by disturbances is proposed. Faults appearing explicitly in the state equation and in the system output (actuator faults and sensor faults) are considered. With this design neither the estimation of the state vector nor the estimation of the disturbances is required, implying that the structural conditions are less restrictive than the ones required to design an unknown input observer. Furthermore, the number of unknown inputs (faults plus disturbances) may be greater than the number of outputs. The faults are written as an algebraic expression of a high-order derivative of a function depending on the output. Thus, the reconstruction of the fault signals is carried out by means of a sliding mode high-order differentiator, which requires the derivative of the faults to have a bounded norm.     

ROBUST FAULT DETECTION AND ISOLATION FOR UNCERTAIN LINEAR RETARDED SYSTEMS

A robust fault detection and isolation scheme is proposed for uncertain continuous linear systems with discrete state delays for both additive and multiplicative faults. Model uncertainties, disturbances and noises are represented as unstructured unknown inputs. The proposed scheme consists of a Luenberger observer for fault detection and a group of adaptive observers, one for each class of faults, for fault isolation. The threshold determination and fault isolation are based on a multi‐observer strategy. Robustness to model uncertainties and disturbances can be guaranteed for the scheme by selecting proper thresholds. All the signals, i.e., the fault estimate and the state and output estimation errors of each isolation observer can be shown to be uniformly bounded, and the estimate of the fault by the matched observer is shown to be satisfactory in the sense of extended H₂ norm. Furthermore, the sensitivity to fault and the fault isolability condition are analyzed also in the paper. Simulations of a heating process for detecting and isolating an actuator gain fault and an additive fault show the proposed scheme is effective.     

Fault detection and accommodation of a class of nonlinear systems with unknown multiple time-delayed faults

This paper investigates a fault detection and accommodation (FDA) problem of a class of nonlinear time-delay systems in the presence of unknown multiple time-delayed faults. Compared with existing literature, a main contribution of this paper is to design a time-delay independent FDA scheme, namely, the exact information on time delays is not required to implement the proposed FDA scheme. Under the assumption that the magnitude and occurrence time of multiple faults are unknown, we first design a delay-independent fault detection scheme with a detection threshold for time-delay systems and analyze the fault detectability. Then, an approximation-based fault accommodation design activated after the detection of the first fault is presented for compensating multiple faults. The robustness of the fault detection scheme and asymptotic stability of the tracking error are established through Lyapunov stability analysis. A simulation example is used to illustrate the proposed FDA scheme.     

Fault detection for linear distributed-parameter systems using finite-dimensional functional observers

In this article, finite-dimensional residual generators are directly designed for Riesz-spectral systems with bounded input and output operators to detect faults. This is achieved by using finite-dimensional observers, that can estimate linear functionals of the state without spillover. These observers allow for a decoupling of the unknown disturbances from the estimation error dynamics under mild assumptions. Then, a finite-dimensional residual generator is obtained by approximately decoupling the state from the residual, that is generated by the observer states and the outputs. It is shown that the resulting approximation error can be made small by increasing the observer order. Then, fault detection with the finite-dimensional residual generator can be assured by introducing a time-varying threshold. A faulty Euler–Bernoulli beam with structural damping illustrates the proposed finite-dimensional fault detection approach.     

Estimation of states,faults and unknown disturbances in non-linear systems

In this paper, we extend existing theory on non-linear unknown input observer design to a wider class of non-linear systems where the systems are subject to unknown input and output disturbances and experience faults. The approach used is to decouple the faults and unknown disturbances from the rest of the system through a series of transformations on state and output equations. Once total disturbance decoupling is achieved, an appropriate observer for the disturbance free part of the non-linear system is proposed and designed. The designed observer is, subsequently, used for estimation of unknown inputs, outputs, and fault signals. Two examples are given for illustration.     

Adaptive type-2 fuzzy sliding mode controller for SISO nonlinear systems subject to actuator faults

In this paper, an adaptive type-2 fuzzy sliding mode control to tolerate actuator faults of unknown nonlinear systems with external disturbances is presented. Based on a redundant actuation structure, a novel type-2 adaptive fuzzy fault tolerant control scheme is proposed using sliding mode control. Two adaptive type-2 fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown functions, whose adaptation laws are deduced from the stability analysis. The proposed approach allows to ensure good tracking performance despite the presence of actuator failures and external disturbances, as illustrated through a simulation example.     

Adaptive output feedback control using fault compensation and fault estimation for linear system with actuator failure

The problem of linear systems subject to actuator faults（outage,loss of efectiveness and stuck）,parameter uncertainties and external disturbances is considered.An active fault compensation control law is designed which utilizes compensation in such a way that uncertainties,disturbances and the occurrence of actuator faults are account for.The main idea is designing a robust adaptive output feedback controller by automatically compensating the fault dynamics to render the close-loop stability.According to the information from the adaptive mechanism,the updating control law is derived such that all the parameters of the unknown input signal are bounded.Furthermore,a disturbance decoupled fault reconstruction scheme is presented to evaluate the severity of the fault and to indicate how fault accommodation should be implemented.The advantage of fault compensation is that the dynamics caused by faults can be accommodated online.The proposed design method is illustrated on a rocket fairing structural-acoustic model.     

Robust Fault‐Tolerant Control of Launch Vehicle Via GPI Observer and Integral Sliding Mode Control

A robust fault‐tolerant attitude control scheme is proposed for a launch vehicle (LV) in the presence of unknown external disturbances, mismodeling dynamics, actuator faults, and actuator's constraints. The input‐output representation is employed to describe the rotational dynamics of LV rendering three independently decoupled second order single‐input‐single‐output (SISO) systems. In the differential algebraic framework, general proportional integral (GPI) observers are used for the estimations of the states and of the generalized disturbances, which include internal perturbations, external disturbances, and unknown actuator failures. In order to avoid the defects of the conventional sliding surface, a new nonlinear integral sliding manifold is introduced for the robust fault‐tolerant sliding mode controller design. The stability of the GPI observer and that of the closed‐loop system are guaranteed by Lyapunov's indirect and direct methods, respectively. The convincing numerical simulation results demonstrate the proposed control scheme is with high attitude tracking performance in the presence of various disturbances, actuator faults, and actuator constraints.     

Diagnosis of unknown parametric faults in non-linear stochastic dynamical systems

A new detection and isolation scheme for unknown parametric faults in non-linear stochastic systems is presented that is particularly suited for small parametric changes. The proposed residual is the moving angle between two stochastic processes: the error derived from the reference model and the expected error in case a certain fault has occurred. Since the fault is unknown, fault classes are defined. Most of the faults that belong to such a fault class can be detected and isolated by just testing one representative of this fault class. As the moving angle itself is a stochastic process, an estimator is designed and characterised. Conditions for the detectability and isolability of fault classes are given for this estimator based on hypotheses tests. Finally, the theoretical results are confirmed by simulations and Monte Carlo tests.
