This paper studies the robust fault-tolerant control problem against actuator faults and parameter uncertainty for High-Speed Trains. First, models of actuator faults and parameter uncertainty are presented. Then a robust fault-tolerant tracking controller design method is developed. This method is based on the mixed Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMI)/Lyapunov stability theory. Tracking control examples and simulations are given, and the response curves of the fault system and the system with the fault-tolerant tracking controller are presented.

This article investigates the cooperative fault-tolerant control problem for multiple high-speed trains (MHSTs) with actuator faults and communication delays. Based on the actor-critic neural network, a distributed sliding mode fault-tolerant controller is designed for MHSTs to solve the problem of actuator faults. To eliminate the negative effects of unknown disturbances and time delay on train control system, a distributed radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) with adaptive compensation term of the error is designed to approximate the nonlinear disturbances and predict the time delay, respectively. By calculating the tracking error online, an actor-critic structure with RBFNN is used to estimate the switching gain of the distributed controller, which reduces the chattering phenomenon caused by sliding mode control. The global stability and ultimate bounded of all signals of the closed-loop system are proposed with strict mathematic proof. Simulations show that the proposed method has superior effectiveness and robustness compared with other fault-tolerant control methods, which ensures the safe operation of MHSTs under moving block conditions.

This paper investigates the fault-tolerant tracking control problem of high-speed trains (HSTs) subject to unknown model parameters with unavailable uncertainties, unmeasurable additional disturbance, and unpredictable actuator faults constrained by actuator saturation. An adaptive passive fault-tolerant tracking control strategy based on variable-gain proportion-integral-derivative (PID)-type sliding mode surface is proposed to handle the problem. Unknown model parameters, gains of the PID-type sliding mode surface, and upper bounds of the lumped system uncertainty which includes additional disturbance, modeling uncertainties, and uncertainties resulting from actuator faults, are estimated online by adaptive technology. The input saturation (actuator output saturation) constraint is handled by introducing an auxiliary signal. The proposed controller can compensate for the effects of the lumped uncertainty and the actuator faults effectively. Moreover, the controller is model-independent, which means it requires no prior knowledge of model parameters and upper bounds of the lumped uncertainty, and does not depend upon fault detection and diagnosis module. The asymptotic stability of the closed-loop train system is demonstrated by Lyapunov theory. Good fault-tolerant tracking capacity, effective anti-actuator saturation ability, and strong robustness of the proposed controller are verified via numerical simulation.

AbstractIn this paper, an active fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for turbofan engines subject to simultaneous multiplicative and additive actuator faults under disturbances is proposed. First, a state error feedback controller is designed based on interval observer as the nominal controller in order to achieve the model reference rotary speed tracking control for the fault-free turbofan engine under disturbances. Subsequently, a virtual actuator based reconfiguration block is developed aiming at preserving the consistent performance in spite of the occurrence of the simultaneous multiplicative and additive actuator faults. Moreover, to improve the performance of the FTC system, the interval observer is slightly modified without reconstruction of the state error feedback controller. And a theoretical sufficiency criterion is provided to ensure the stability of the proposed active FTC system. Simulation results on a turbofan engine indicate that the proposed active FCT scheme is effective despite of the existence of actuator faults and disturbances.

To suppress airfoil flutter, a lot of control methods have been proposed, such as classical control methods and optimal control methods. However, these methods did not consider the influence of actuator faults and control delay. This paper proposes a new finite-time H∞ adaptive fault-tolerant flutter controller by radial basis function neural network technology and adaptive fault-tolerant control method, taking into account actuator faults, control delay, modeling uncertainties, and external disturbances. The theoretic section of this paper is about airfoil flutter dynamic modeling and adaptive fault-tolerant controller design. Lyapunov function and linear matrix inequality are employed to prove the stability of the proposed control method of this paper. The numeral simulation section further proves the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed control algorithm of this paper.
