This paper deals with a methodical design approach of fault-tolerant controller that gives assurance for the the stabilization and acceptable control performance of the nonlinear systems which can be described by Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy models. Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model gives a unique edge that allows us to apply the traditional linear system theory for the investigation and blend of nonlinear systems by linear models in a different state space region. The overall fuzzy model of the nonlinear system is obtained by fuzzy combination of the all linear models. After that, based on this linear model, we employ parallel distributed compensation for designing linear controllers for each linear model. Also this paper reports of the T–S fuzzy system with less conservative stabilization condition which gives decent performance. However, the controller synthesis for nonlinear systems described by the T–S fuzzy model is a complicated task, which can be reduced to convex problems linking with linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Further sufficient conservative stabilization conditions are represented by a set of LMIs for the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy control systems, which can be solved by using MATLAB software. Two-rule T–S fuzzy model is used to describe the nonlinear system and this system demonstrated with proposed fault-tolerant control scheme. The proposed fault-tolerant controller implemented and validated on three interconnected conical tank system with two constraints in terms of faults, one issed to build the actuator and sond is system component (leak) respectively. The MATLAB Simulink platform with linear fuzzy models and an LMI Toolbox was used to solve the LMIs and determine the controller gains subject to the proposed design approach.

AbstractThis paper deals with a systematic design procedure that guarantees the stability and optimal performance of the nonlinear systems described by Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models. Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model allows us to represent a nonlinear system by linear models in different state space regions. The overall fuzzy model is obtained by fuzzy blending of these linear models. Then based on this model, linear controllers are designed for each linear model using parallel distributed compensation. Stability and optimal performance conditions for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy control systems can be represented by a set of linear matrix inequalities which can be solved using software packages such as MATLAB’s LMI Toolbox. This design procedure is illustrated for a nonlinear system which is described by a two-rule Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model. The fuzzy model was built in MATLAB Simulink and a code was written in LMI Toolbox to determine the controller gains subject to the proposed design approach.

The fault-tolerant robust non-fragile H∞ filtering problem for networked control systems with sensor failures is studied in this paper. The Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model which can appropriate any nonlinear systems is employed. Based on the model, a filter which can maintain stability and H∞ performance level under the influence of gain perturbation of the filter and sensor failures is designed. Moreover, the gain matrix of sensor failures is converted into a dynamic interval to expand the range of allowed failures. And the sufficient condition for the existence of the desired filter is derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) solutions. Finally a simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, a new design approach to construct a fault-tolerant controller (FTC) with fault estimation capability is proposed using a generalized Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model for a class of nonlinear systems in the presence of actuator faults and unknown disturbances. The generalized T-S fuzzy model consists of some local models with multiplicative nonlinear terms that satisfy Lipschitz condition. Besides covering a very wide range of nonlinear systems with a smaller number of local rules in comparison with the conventional T-S fuzzy model and hence having less computational burden, the existence of the multiplicative nonlinear term solves the uncontrollability issues that the other generalized T-S fuzzy models with additive nonlinear terms dealt with. A state/fault observer designed for the considered generalized T-S fuzzy model and then, a dynamic FTC law based on the estimated fault information is proposed and sufficient design conditions are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). It can be shown that the number of LMIs are less than that of previously proposed methods and then feasibility of our method is more likely. The effectiveness of the proposed FTC approach is verified using a nonlinear mass-spring-damper system.

This paper presents a simple, natural and effective framework of nonlinear systems control and its application to aerial robots. First, we present a framework of Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model-based control and also discuss its feature. Next, a number of design problems for the control framework are formulated as numerically feasibility problems of representing in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Finally, we provide two applications of the control framework to aerial robots. The control results of aerial robots show the utility of the control framework.

A novel approach to build a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model of an unknown nonlinear system from experimental data is presented in the paper. The neuro-fuzzy models or, more specifically, fuzzy basis function networks (FBFNs) are trained from input–output data to approximate the nonlinear systems for which analytical mathematical models are not available. Then, the T-S fuzzy models are derived from the direct linearization of the neuro-fuzzy models. The operating points for linearization are chosen using the evolutionary strategy to minimize the global approximation error so that the T-S fuzzy models can closely approximate the original unknown nonlinear system with a reduced number of linearizations. Based on T-S fuzzy models, optimal controllers are designed and implemented for a nonlinear two-link flexible joint robot, which demonstrates the possibility of implementing the well-established model-based optimal control method onto unknown nonlinear dynamic systems.

Although the Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy model is effective for representing the dynamics of a plant to be controlled, two main questions arise when using it just as other models: 1) how to deal with the gap, which is referred to as uncertainty in this study, between the model and the concerned plant, and how to estimate the state information when it cannot be obtained directly, especially with the existence of uncertainty; 2) how to design a controller that guarantees a stable control system where only the estimated state is available and an uncertainty exists. While the existing studies cannot effectively observe the state and the resulting control systems can only be managed to be uniformly stable, this study first presents a state observer capable of precisely estimating the state regardless of the existence of uncertainty. Then, based on the state observer, an uncertainty observer is derived, which can track the trajectory of uncertainty whenever it occurs in a real system. Finally, a controller based on both observers is presented, which guarantees the asymptotic stability of the resulting control system.

A state differential feedback control system based Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model is designed for load-following operation of nonlinear nuclear reactor whose operating points vary within a wide range. Linear models are first derived from the original nonlinear model on several operating points. Next the fuzzy controller is designed via using the parallel distributed compensation (PDC) scheme with the relative neutron density at the equilibrium point as the premise variable. Last the stability analysis is given by means of linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach, thus the control system is guaranteed to be stable within a large range. The simulation results demonstrate that the control system works well over a wide region of operation.

This paper investigates the fuzzy predictive control for a class of nonlinear system with constrains under the condition of noise. Based on the fuzzy linearization theory, a class of nonlinear systems can be described by the Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy model. The T–S fuzzy model and predictive control are combined to stabilize the proposed class of nonlinear system, and the detailed mathematical derivation is given. Moreover, the designed controller has been optimized even if the system is constrained by output and control input, or perturbed by external disturbances. Finally, numerical simulations including three-dimensional Lorenz system, four-dimensional Chen system and five-dimensional nonlinear system with external disturbances are presented to demonstrate the universality and effectiveness of the proposed scheme. The approach proposed in this paper is simple and easy to implement and also provides reference for relevant nonlinear systems.

This paper focuses on the problem of nonlinear systems with input and state delays. The considered nonlinear systems are represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. A new state feedback control approach is introduced for T-S fuzzy systems with input delay and state delays. A new Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is employed to derive less conservative stability conditions by incorporating a recently developed Wirtinger-based integral inequality. Based on the Lyapunov stability criterion, a series of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are obtained by using the slack variables and integral inequality, which guarantees the asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system. Several numerical examples are given to show the advantages of the proposed results.

The paper proposes a new design method based on linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) for tracking constant signals (regulation) considering nonlinear plants described by the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models. The procedure consists in designing a single controller that stabilizes the system at operation points belonging to a certain range or region, without the need of remaking the design of the controller gains at each new chosen equilibrium point. The control system design of a magnetic levitator illustrates the proposed methodology.
