A velocity-free state feedback fault-tolerant control approach is proposed for the rigid satellite attitude stabilization problem subject to velocity-free measurements and actuator and sensor faults. First, multiplicative faults and additive faults are considered in the actuator and the sensor. The faults and system states are extended into a new augmented vector. Then, an improved sliding mode observer based on the augmented vector is presented to estimate unknown system states and actuator and sensor faults simultaneously. Next, a velocity-free state feedback attitude controller is designed based on the information from the observer. The controller compensates for the effects of actuator and sensor faults and asymptotically stabilizes the attitude. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This paper investigated the problem of fault estimation and fault-tolerant control (FTC) against sensor faults for aircraft engines. By applying a second order sliding mode observer (SOSMO) to the engine on-board model, estimations of the system states and sensor faults could be obtained simultaneously, and the result of state estimation was unaffected when using the reduced-order sliding mode system. This result gave rise to the idea to use the estimated states instead of physical sensor signal in the engine close-loop feedback control. Unlike those using passive FTC concepts, the tradeoff between control performance and robustness was inherently unnecessary. Meanwhile, compared to active FTC approaches, because any classical state/output feedback method can be directly applied to the proposed scheme without any controller reconfiguration, extra undesired dynamic responses caused by parameter reconfiguring were avoided. In this paper, the proposed FTC scheme was tested on the nonlinear model of a civil aircraft turbofan engine, and numerical simulation results showed satisfactory sensor FTC performance.

This paper proposes fault-tolerant control design for uncertain nonlinear systems described under Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy systems with local nonlinear models that satisfy the Lipschitz condition. First, by transforming sensor faults as ‘pseudo-actuator’ faults, an adaptive sliding mode observer is designed in order to simultaneously estimate system states, actuator and sensor faults despite the presence of norm-bounded uncertainties. Second, an adaptive sliding mode controller is suggested to provide a solution to stabilize the closed-loop system, even in the event of simultaneous occurrence of faults in actuators and sensors. Next, the main objective of the fault-tolerant control strategy is to compensate for the effects of fault based on the feedback information. Therefore, using the LMI optimization method, sufficient conditions are developed with [Formula: see text] to calculate the gains of the observer and the controller. Then, particular attention is paid to the simultaneous maximization, by convex multi-objective optimization, of the Lipschitz nonlinear constant in Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy modelling and uncertainties attenuation level. The results of the simulation illustrate the effectiveness of our fault-tolerant control approach using a nonlinear inverted pendulum with a cart system.

The purpose of this paper is to show a novel fault-tolerant tracking control (FTC) strategy with robust fault estimation and compensating for simultaneous actuator sensor faults. Based on the framework of fault-tolerant control, developing an FTC design method for wind turbines is a challenge and, thus, they can tolerate simultaneous pitch actuator and pitch sensor faults having bounded first time derivatives. The paper’s key contribution is proposing a descriptor sliding mode method, in which for establishing a novel augmented descriptor system, with which we can estimate the state of system and reconstruct fault by designing descriptor sliding mode observer, the paper introduces an auxiliary descriptor state vector composed by a system state vector, actuator fault vector, and sensor fault vector. By the optimized method of LMI, the conditions for stability that estimated error dynamics are set up to promote the determination of the parameters designed. With this estimation, and designing a fault-tolerant controller, the system’s stability can be maintained. The effectiveness of the design strategy is verified by implementing the controller in the National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s 5-MW nonlinear, high-fidelity wind turbine model (FAST) and simulating it in MATLAB/Simulink.

This paper proposes a novel fault tolerant control (FTC) scheme for a class of hybrid dynamical system (HDS) subject to sensor faults. The corresponding FTC architecture is designed around a reconfiguration mechanism. It aims to compensate the effects of the sensors degradation and maintain satisfactory performances including continuous stability. Moreover, by using the linear matrix inequalities (LMI) approach, a fault estimation algorithm is fulfilled and the compromise between robustness to disturbances and sensitivity to fault is guaranteed. For the sake of trajectory tracking, a combined robust state feedback and proportional-integral-derivative control system is proposed herein. Finally, extensive simulation results conducted on two-link arm system are included to illustrate the efficiency of the designed FTC scheme.

For the problem of actuator-integrated fault estimation (FE) and fault tolerant control (FTC) for the electric power steering (EPS) system of a forklift, firstly, a dynamic model of a forklift EPS system with actuator faults was established; then, an integrated FE and FTC design was proposed. The nonlinear unknown input observer (NUIO) was proposed to estimate the system states and actuator faults, and an adaptive sliding mode FTC system was constructed based on it. The gain of the observer and controller is obtained by H∞ optimization and one-step linear matrix inequality (LMI) formula operation in order to realize the overall optimal design of an FTC system. Finally, the experimental results show that when actuator failure occurs, the proposed integrated FE and FTC were more accurate than the decentralized design to estimate the system states and the actuator faults. The proposed fault-tolerant controller can more effectively restore the power assist performance of the steering power motor in case of failure and effectively ensure the safety and reliability of the forklift EPS system.
