Another contribution of the paper is the introduction of an icing to wind/noise ratio, which allows performing an optimal tuning of some PI-UIO design parameters. Results obtained with a Zagi Flying Wing simulator are used to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116697608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, a robust system against saturation can better deal with faults. In this work, an avoid saturation strategy is proposed for the torque control of WTs. The key idea is that the reference power and generator speed set-points are hysterically manipulated. Simulation results from a 5MW benchmark model show that the proposed strategy has a clear added value with respect to the baseline controller not only in healthy condition but also in presence of a realistic fault.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122989371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposal is based on a demand pattern construction with repetitive multiple statistic models which allow detection through residual generation for each corresponding model. The key of the method is the time division of the pattern such that the demand satisfies the stationarity condition during each time interval. Thus, the sequential set of demand models allows the use of traditional multivariate statistical tool such as principal component analysis (PCA) for the monitoring of each interval in a sequential manner. Simulations with an academic network are used to test the performance of the proposal, and the results show a lower false alarm rate than the standard PCA.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124498017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Detecting and isolating leakages fast is very important not only to save water but also to avoid destruction of roads and houses. This paper deals with isolation of leakages using a reduced network model. We propose a heuristic leakage detection/isolation algorithm which uses the reduced network model to estimate nominal behaviour. The model is adaptive and thus adapts slowly to changes in the network. However, some leakages change the behaviour instantly, and the deviation between pressures estimated by the reduced network model and the actual measured pressure indicates the location of the leakage. The proposed algorithm is tested on a specially designed laboratory setup that emulates a water distribution network. The test shows that the algorithm is in fact able to indicate in which area of the network a leakage has appeared.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122266504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transfer function considered in the paper represents the hydraulic impedance of the pipeline, defined as the ratio of the complex pressure to the complex flow of the transported fluid. A result of the leak, the hydraulic impedance of the pipeline changes, which can be observed, for example, on its frequency- and time-domain pressure responses. The analysis performed in the paper shows that the patterns introduced into these responses by the leaks of different sizes and locations can be used as symptoms, allowing leak detection and classification.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129380734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
