A fault tolerant control (FTC) scheme based on adaptive sliding mode control technique is proposed for manipulator with actuator fault. Firstly, the dynamic model of manipulator is introduced and its actuator faulty model is established. Secondly, a fault tolerant controller is designed, in which both the parameters of actuator fault and external disturbance are estimated and updated by online adaptive technology. Finally, taking a two-joint manipulator as example, simulation results show that the proposed fault tolerant control scheme is effective in tolerating actuator fault; meanwhile it has strong robustness for external disturbance.

In this paper, an adaptive sliding mode fault tolerant control (ASMFTC) approach is proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with actuator fault, uncertainty, and external disturbance. Specifically, first, a novel observer is proposed to estimate the state, actuator fault, and external disturbance. Then, by utilising the observed information, a novel output sliding mode observer is constructed. In the control method, an adaptive law and two compensators are designed to attenuate the unknown estimation errors, actuator fault, and disturbance. Furthermore, the reaching ability of the sliding motion is analysed and the H-infinite performance is introduced to ensure the robustness of the system. Finally, a flexible single joint manipulator system and a two-cart system are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this article, an adaptive sliding mode control is used in the framework of fault tolerant control to mitigate the effects of actuator faults without requiring the actuator health information. Since unmanned aerial vehicles are being used in multiple fields such as military, surveillance, media, agriculture, communication and trading sector, therefore it is of vital importance to overcome the effects of actuator faults that can decline system performance and can even lead to some serious accidents. The proposed adaptive sliding mode control approach can handle actuator faults directly without requiring any faults information and adaptively adjusts controller gains to maintain acceptable level of performance. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive fault tolerant control scheme, it has been tested in simulations using non-linear Benchmark model of Octorotor system and its performance is compared with the optimal LQR control approach.

To deal with complex disturbances and the presence of partial loss of propeller effectiveness in work-class remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), a method of robust fault tolerant control is proposed, which is based on adaptive sliding mode control. In this approach, adaptive technique is employed to estimate the bounds’ information of external complex disturbances and the effectiveness loss of the propeller. And a sliding mode controller is then designed to achieve fault tolerant control and external disturbance rejection. Corresponding stability of the closed-loop control system is analyzed using Lyapunov stability theory. Apply this method to trajectory tracking control of work-class ROVs, the simulation results validate that great fault tolerant capability and a good performance of external disturbance rejection can be achieved even under partial loss of propeller effectiveness.

The paper describes the design of a fault-tolerant control scheme for an uncertain model of a hypersonic reentry vehicle subject to actuator faults. In order to improve superior transient performances for state tracking, the proposed method relies on a back-stepping sliding mode controller combined with an adaptive disturbance observer and a reference vector generator. This structure allows for a faster response and reduces the overshoots compared to linear conventional disturbance observers based sliding mode controller. Robust stability and performance guarantees of the overall closed-loop system are obtained using Lyapunov theory. Finally, numerical simulations results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

In this paper, an active fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed for a lower limb exoskeleton, based on hybrid backstepping nonsingular fast terminal integral type sliding mode control and impedance control. To increase the robustness of the sliding mode controller and to eliminate the chattering, a nonsingular fast terminal integral type sliding surface is used, which ensures finite time convergence and high tracking accuracy. The backstepping term of this controller guarantees global stability based on Lyapunov stability criterion, and the impedance control reduces the interaction forces between the user and the robot. This controller employs a third order super twisting sliding mode observer for detecting, isolating ad estimating sensor and actuator faults. Motion stability based on zero moment point criterion is achieved by trajectory planning of waist joint. Furthermore, the highest level of stability, minimum error in tracking the desired joint trajectories, minimum interaction force between the user and the robot, and maximum system capability to handle the effect of faults are realized by optimizing the parameters of the desired trajectories, the controller and the observer, using harmony search algorithm. Simulation results for the proposed controller are compared with the results obtained from adaptive nonsingular fast terminal integral type sliding mode control, as well as conventional sliding mode control, which confirm the outperformance of the proposed control scheme.

This paper presents a new sliding mode adaptive controller for MEMS z-axis gyroscope. The proposed adaptive sliding mode control algorithm can on-line estimate the component of the angular velocity vector, which is orthogonal to the plane of oscillation of the gyroscope (the z-axis) and the linear damping and stiffness model coefficients. The stability of the closed-loop system can be guaranteed with the proposed control strategy. The numerical simulation for MEMS Gyroscope is investigated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive sliding mode control scheme. It is shown that the proposed adaptive sliding mode control scheme offers several advantages such as on-line estimation of gyroscope parameters including angular rate and large robustness to parameter variations and external disturbance.
