Stability of Time-Delay Systems

This book is downloadable from http://www.irisa.fr/sisthem/kniga/. Many monitoring problems can be stated as the problem of detecting a change in the parameters of a static or dynamic stochastic system. The main goal of this book is to describe a unified framework for the design and the performance analysis of the algorithms for solving these change detection problems. Also the book contains the key mathematical background necessary for this purpose. Finally links with the analytical redundancy approach to fault detection in linear systems are established. We call abrupt change any change in the parameters of the system that occurs either instantaneously or at least very fast with respect to the sampling period of the measurements. Abrupt changes by no means refer to changes with large magnitude; on the contrary, in most applications the main problem is to detect small changes. Moreover, in some applications, the early warning of small - and not necessarily fast - changes is of crucial interest in order to avoid the economic or even catastrophic consequences that can result from an accumulation of such small changes. For example, small faults arising in the sensors of a navigation system can result, through the underlying integration, in serious errors in the estimated position of the plane. Another example is the early warning of small deviations from the normal operating conditions of an industrial process. The early detection of slight changes in the state of the process allows to plan in a more adequate manner the periods during which the process should be inspected and possibly repaired, and thus to reduce the exploitation costs.

Detection of abrupt changes: theory and application

There is an increasing demand for dynamic systems to become safer and more reliable This requirement extends beyond the normally accepted safety-critical systems such as nuclear reactors and aircraft, where safety is of paramount importance, to systems such as autonomous vehicles and process control systems where the system availability is vital It is clear that fault diagnosis is becoming an important subject in modern control theory and practice Robust Model-Based Fault Diagnosis for Dynamic Systems presents the subject of model-based fault diagnosis in a unified framework It contains many important topics and methods; however, total coverage and completeness is not the primary concern The book focuses on fundamental issues such as basic definitions, residual generation methods and the importance of robustness in model-based fault diagnosis approaches In this book, fault diagnosis concepts and methods are illustrated by either simple academic examples or practical applications The first two chapters are of tutorial value and provide a starting point for newcomers to this field The rest of the book presents the state of the art in model-based fault diagnosis by discussing many important robust approaches and their applications This will certainly appeal to experts in this field Robust Model-Based Fault Diagnosis for Dynamic Systems targets both newcomers who want to get into this subject, and experts who are concerned with fundamental issues and are also looking for inspiration for future research The book is useful for both researchers in academia and professional engineers in industry because both theory and applications are discussed Although this is a research monograph, it will be an important text for postgraduate research students world-wide The largest market, however, will be academics, libraries and practicing engineers and scientists throughout the world

Robust Model-Based Fault Diagnosis for Dynamic Systems

With the aid of the factorization approach linear observers and their estimation error dynamics are parameterized. This result provides a dual representation of the well-known linear controller parameterization and gives a new insight into the observer design which may be used for the observer construction and robust observer design. >

Parameterization of linear observers and its application to observer design

Problems related to fault detection of uncertain dynamical systems are studied. The purpose of this study is to solve residual generation and evaluation problems. With the aid of frequency domain fault detection approaches, a relationship between residual generators, residual evaluation function and the minimum size of detectable faults is established. This enables the authors to formulate the tasks as optimization problems that are solvable using frequency domain optimization techniques. An expression for achievable minimum size of detectable faults by using linear residual generators is finally derived. >

A frequency domain approach to fault detection of uncertain dynamic systems

A sufficient condition is derived such that the closed-loop state delayed system is stable and guarantees a prescribed H ∞ norm bound of the closed-loop transfer matrix from the disturbance to the controlled output. Based on this derivation, a full-order observer-based H ∞ controller for the stace delayed linear systems is constructed by solving two modified algebraic Riccati equations. The state feedback H ∞ controller for the state delayed linear systems is also obtained by solving a modified algebraic Riccati equation. An illustrative example is given to show the applicability of the proposed approach.

H ∞ control via output feedback for state delayed systems

Advanced Fault Detection and Isolation Schemes Using Nonlinear and Robust Observers

In this paper, problems related to the threshold calculation and its integration in the design of observer-based fault detection systems are studied. The focus of the study is the application of practical fault detection methods in the framework of observer-based fault detection schemes. The basic idea consists in the formulation of threshold calculation as some standard optimization problems which are then solved using the well-established LMI-optimization technique.
