Application of signed digraphs-based analysis for fault diagnosis of chemical process flowsheets

TL;DR: Two case studies are presented to illustrate SDG-based analysis of process flowsheets containing many units and control loops and it is shown that digraph-based steady-state analysis results in good diagnostic resolution.

A Systematic Framework for the Development and Analysis of Signed Digraphs for Chemical Processes. 1. Algorithms and Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the systematic development of graph models and the conceptual relationship between the analysis of graph model and the underlying mathematical description and the analysis procedures for the graph model.

A Signed Directed Graph and Qualitative Trend Analysis-Based Framework for Incipient Fault Diagnosis

TL;DR: A combined signed directed graph (SDG) and qualitative trend analysis (QTA) framework for incipient fault diagnosis that combines the completeness property of SDG with the high diagnostic resolution property of QTA.

A signed directed graph-based systematic framework for steady-state malfunction diagnosis inside control loops

TL;DR: In this paper, a unified SDG model for control loops is discussed, in which both disturbances (sensor bias, etc.) as well as structural faults can be easily modeled under steady-state conditions.

A systematic framework for the development and analysis of signed digraphs for chemical processes. 2. Control loops and flowsheet analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a signed digraph (SDG) model for control loops and discuss a framework for application of graph-based approaches at a flowsheet level.

Formulation of linear data reconciliation using information theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reformulated linear data reconciliation by maximizing the information entropy to obtain probability distributions of the data with the minimum incorporation of prior knowledge, and then the reconciled measurements are obtained by maximum likelihood, subject to the process constraints.

Structuring diagnostic knowledge for large-scale process systems

TL;DR: In this article, a set of guidelines for generating an initial organization of knowledge for distributed diagnosis of a process plant is described, where the diagnostic knowledge is organized hierarchically by primary processing systems (commonly feed, reaction, and separation in chemical plants), subsystems, components, behaviors and malfunction modes.

Robust fault diagnosis based on clustered symptom trees

TL;DR: In this article, a new methodology for fault diagnosis, based on the signed digraph (SDG), was proposed in developing the fault-diagnostic system of a boiler plant, which uses a new model, the clustered symptom tree (CST).
