This paper presents a new accurate multiple model of nonlinear pneumatic lateral forces. The bicycle representation is used in order to build up an easy implemented vehicle dynamic model. Moreover, the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy approach is applied in order to handle the vehicle model nonlinearities. This structure allows for taking into account the small variation of the vehicle longitudinal velocity. Subsequently, a Fault Tolerant Control strategy that is based on a bank of fuzzy Luenberger observers is proposed. The robustness of the control scheme against external noises is guaranteed by applying H∞ performance. Sufficient stability conditions that are based on Lyapunov method are formulated as Linear Matrix Inequality. Thus, allowing the computation of the observers’ and the controllers’ gains by using MATLAB. Finally, the simulation examples are performed to show the effectiveness of our proposal.

In this work, we investigate the problem of control for nonlinear systems represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models affected by both sensor and actuator faults subject to an unknown bounded disturbances (UBD). For this, we design an adaptive observer to estimate state, sensor and actuator fault vectors simultaneously despite the presence of external disturbances. Based on this observer, we develop a fault tolerant control (FTC) law not only to stabilize closed loop system, but also to compensate the fault effects. For the observer-based controller design, we propose less conservative conditions formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Moreover, both observer and controller gains are calculated via solving a set of LMIs only in single step. Finally, comparative results and an application to single-link flexible joint robot are afforded to prove the efficiency of the proposed design.

The main aim of this paper is to propose a robust fault-tolerant control for a three degree of freedom (DOF) mechanical crane by using a convex quasi-Linear Parameter Varying (qLPV) approach for modeling the crane and a passive fault-tolerant scheme. The control objective is to minimize the load oscillations while the desired path is tracked. The convex qLPV model is obtained by considering the nonlinear sector approach, which can represent exactly the nonlinear system under the bounded nonlinear terms. To improve the system safety, tolerance to partial actuator faults is considered. Performance requirements of the tracking control system are specified in an H∞ criteria that guarantees robustness against measurement noise, and partial faults. As a result, a set of Linear Matrix Inequalities is derived to compute the controller gains. Numerical experiments on a realistic 3 DOF crane model confirm the applicability of the control scheme.


In this paper, the problems of fault estimation and fault-tolerant control for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy system affected by simultaneous actuator faults, sensor faults and external disturbances are investigated. Firstly, an adaptive fuzzy sliding-mode observer is designed to simultaneously estimate system states and both actuator and sensor faults. Then, based on the online estimation information, a static output feedback fault-tolerant controller is designed to compensate for the effect of faults and to stabilize the closed-loop system. Moreover, sufficient conditions for the existence of the proposed observer and controller with an H∞ performance are derived based on Lyapunov stability theory and expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, a nonlinear inverted pendulum with cart system application is given illustrate the validity of the proposed method.

An integrated fault estimation and fault-tolerant control scheme is developed in this paper for dynamic positioning of ships in the presence of an actuator fault. First, an auxiliary derivative output of dynamic positioning ships is constructed in order to satisfy the so-called observer matching condition, and a high-gain observer is designed to exactly estimate the auxiliary derivative outputs. Then, a fault-tolerant controller is developed for dynamic positioning ships based on the iterative learning observer. By means of Lyapunov–Krasovskii stability theory, it is proved that the proposed fault-tolerant controller is able to estimate the total fault effects and states of ships accurately via the iterative learning observer and also to stabilize the closed-loop system. In addition, the parameter design of the proposed fault-tolerant control system can be conveniently solved in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, simulation studies for dynamic positioning ships with actuator faults are carried out, and the results validate the effectivity of the proposed fault-tolerant control scheme.

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.
