The problem of constructing a diagnostic model for a network S consisting of a number of digital automata is considered, provided that the diagnostic models of all network components are known. It is assumed that these models are given by systems of logical equations, and the errors to be detected are localized in any but a single component of the network.
Abstract
Failure detection and model updating using structural model are based on the comparison of an appropriate indicator of the discrepancy between experimental and analytical results. The reliability of the expansion of measured mode shapes is very important for the process of error localization and model updating.
Two mode shape expansion techniques are examined in this paper : the well known dynamic expansion (DE) method and a method based on the minimisation of errors on constitutive equations (MECE). A new expansion method based on some improvements of the previous techniques is proposed to obtain results that are more reliable for error localisation and for model updating.
The relative performance of the different expansion methods is demonstrated on the example of a cantilever beam.
