Optimal residual design for fault diagnosis using multi-objective optimization and genetic algorithms

TLDR
A new approach to the design of optimal residuals in order to diagnose incipient faults based on multi-objective optimization and genetic algorithms is developed, and simulation results show that incipient sensor faults can be detected reliably in the presence of modelling uncertainty.
Abstract
This paper develops a new approach to the design of optimal residuals in order to diagnose incipient faults based on multi-objective optimization and genetic algorithms. In this approach the residual is generated via an observer. To reduce false and missed alarm rates in fault diagnosis, a number of performance indices are introduced into the observer design. Some performance indices are expressed in the frequency domain to take account of the frequency distributions of faults, noise and modelling uncertainties. All objectives then are reformulated into a set of inequality constraints on performance indices. A genetic algorithm is thus used to search for an optimal solution to satisfy these inequality constraints on performance indices. The approach developed is applied to a flight control system example, and simulation results show that incipient sensor faults can be detected reliably in the presence of modelling uncertainty.

System health monitoring and prognostics — a review of current paradigms and practices

TL;DR: The most common maintenance and repair strategy is "fix it when it breaks" as discussed by the authors, which can provide relatively high equipment reliability, but it tends to do so at excessive cost (higher scheduled downtimes).

An LMI approach to minimum sensitivity analysis with application to fault detection

TL;DR: The lowest level of sensitivity of system outputs to system inputs is defined as an H"- index, defined in terms of matrix equalities and inequalities, as a dual of the Bounded Real Lemma.

Design of dynamical and control systems by the method of inequalities

TL;DR: It is shown how typical design problems lead naturally to the formulation of a set of inequalities, any solution of which characterises an acceptable system, and a numerical process for obtaining a solution of a system of inequalities is developed.

Optimal residual decoupling for robust fault diagnosis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors deal with residual generation for the diagnosis of faults in the presence of disturbances, represented as multiplicative disturbances, and on parametric faults, both characterized as discrepancies in a set of underlying parameters.
