A fault at a subsystem should be detected by a local model-based diagnostic unit that only evaluates the local signals of the faulty subsystem. The focus of this paper is on the organisation of the design process of the diagnostic unit without a central coordinator. Design agents exist for each of the subsystems which store the subsystem model. A local algorithm is presented to gather models from neighbouring design agents with the aim to set-up a model which describes the behaviour of the faulty subsystem used by the diagnostic unit. Based on a proposed detectability condition the amount of model information is determined in order to guarantee the detection of the fault. As a consequence, with the plug-in of the diagnostic unit into the control hardware, the detection of the fault is ensured. The proposed plug-and-play diagnosis is applied to a multizone furnace.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"18 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":"130306847","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}

Yet, such actuators might have an increased probability of faults due to their higher complexity and operation in critical states, e.g., antiresonance. This contribution investigates feature extraction methods for fault diagnosis in such actuators. Stiffness and motion sensor faults are focused since those are assessed to have high occurrence probabilities with potentially severe consequences. To detect stiffness deviations, a recursive least squares estimator is implemented while Kalman-Bucy filters are applied to generate residuals that indicate encoder faults. The methods are examined using models of system and fault dynamics of a variable torsion stiffness actuator. The simulation results show that very distinct features for fault diagnosis can be extracted. The investigated feature extraction methods are very promising for interpretation by classification methods. Recommendations on how to implement those methods for diagnosis purposes are given.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"271 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":"133314140","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 system is subject to input disturbances and actuator faults. First, the considered system is transformed to polytopic representation and then a polytopic proportional-integral unknown input observer (PI-UIO) is designed for it. This observer can estimate both the system states and the actuator faults in the system. The conditions for disturbance decoupling and also the existence and convergence of the PI-UIO are combined and then obtained in a set of LMIs in the polytope vertices. Actuator fault diagnosis is achieved via the fault estimates provided by the observer. The applicability of the proposed scheme is illustrated via a numerical example.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"41 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":"131537398","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}

This is the case for impaired aircraft, but also for under-equipped vehicles (UAVs, small airplanes), since an updated model is a prerequisite for many indirect adaptive or reconfigurable control algorithms. Many schemes have been proposed since the 80s to deal with the tricky problem of on-line estimation. However for aircraft, their computational burden is often incompatible with the constraints resulting from onboard implementation and certification issues. As a result, this paper relies on the well-known pros of frequency domain techniques, but proposes a fully recursive algorithm simple enough to comply with those requirements. The approach is applied to the parameter tracking of a civil aircraft on view of designing an adaptive gain-scheduled flight control law.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"15 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":"128117476","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 adaptation of the controller to the fault is achieved by online modification of the constraints in the model predictive control to achieve reduced energy consumption and thermal comfort under faulty modes.

First, a Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) equivalent model for the AHU-VAV-Zone model is obtained using sector nonlinearity approach. The damper position estimation problem is then posed as a time varying parameter estimation problem. A procedure based on existing literature results on T-S joint state and parameter estimation is implemented. Simulation results show the effectiveness of this approach. A bank of observers based approach is then described that can help in detecting and isolating VAV damper faults in the system using the state and parameter estimates.","PeriodicalId":223249,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd Conference on Control and Fault-Tolerant Systems (SysTol)","volume":"10 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":"129572099","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}
