This paper proposes an adaptive fault-tolerant control scheme for a single-link flexible manipulator with actuator failure and uncertain boundary disturbance. The dynamic model of the flexible manipulator as-described by partial differential equations (PDEs) is derived under Hamilton’s principle. The dynamic model is then used to design an adaptive fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme which tracks the given angle and regulates vibration in the case of actuator failure. The boundary disturbance is compensated by a radial basis function (RBF) neural network. The whole closed-loop system is proven asymptotically stable by Lyapunov direct method and LaSalle’s invariance principle. Simulation results indicate that the proposed controller is superior to the traditional PD controller.

Actuator faults may cause performance degradation of a system and may sometimes even lead to instability. This paper deals with the fault tolerant control problem of a single-link flexible manipulator under a loss of actuator effectiveness. The proposed control scheme uses an adaptive proportional–integral–derivative (APID) controller, which may automatically online tune the three control gains, kp, ki, and kd. The adaptation laws of the APID controller are derived in the sense of the Lyapunov function, so that the stability of the closed-loop system may be guaranteed. The main advantage of the proposed methodology is that no prior offline learning or manual retuning of the PID controller is required to accommodate the actuator fault. In addition, the proposed APID controller does not require any knowledge of the fault magnitude in advance. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed approach is tested for the hub angular position and tracking control of a single-link flexible manipulator under both faulty and fault-free conditions. The results demonstrate that the approach is valid, leading to an accurate fault reconstruction, a better transient and good tracking performance, and significantly improved upon previous approaches in terms of errors with respect to the corresponding traditional fixed-gain PID controller.

The problem of adaptive finite-time fault-tolerant control (FTC) and output constraints for a class of uncertain nonlinear half-vehicle active suspension systems (ASSs) are investigated in this work. Markovian variables are used to denote in terms of different random actuators failures. In adaptive backstepping design procedure, barrier Lyapunov functions (BLFs) are adopted to constrain vertical motion and pitch motion to suppress the vibrations. Unknown functions and coefficients are approximated by the neural network (NN). Assisted by the stochastic practical finite-time theory and FTC theory, the proposed controller can ensure systems achieve stability in a finite time. Meanwhile, displacement and pitch angle in systems would not violate their maximum values, which imply both ride comfort and safety have been enhanced. In addition, all the signals in the closed-loop systems can be guaranteed to be semiglobal finite-time stable in probability (SGFSP). The simulation results illustrate the validity of the established scheme.

In order to solve the problem of actuator failure of flexible joint manipulator, adaptive fault-tolerant control for a flexible manipulator with bounded disturbance is proposed, both actuator partial failure and actuator stuck are considered. The control lows are devised by means of the dynamic surface technique, and the bounded disturbance is compensated via the design of robust items. The stability of the control system is guaranteed via the Lyapunov method. The effectiveness of the theoretical schemes is finally verified by two simulation examples.
