TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed new fault indices that detect and locate the open-phase faults without additional hardware, which proves to be simple and independent of the operating point, control technique, and drive parameters.
Abstract: Fault tolerance is much appreciated at industry in applications with high-reliability requirements. Due to their inherent fault-tolerant capability against open-phase faults (OPFs), drives with multiple three-phase windings are ideal candidates in such applications and for this reason many efforts have been devoted to the development of different fault-tolerant control strategies. Fault detection is, however, a previous and mandatory stage in the creation of fault-tolerant drives, and the study of specific OPF detection methods for six-phase drives is still scarce. Taking advantage of the secondary currents (so called x - y currents) that are unique in multiphase machines, this study proposes new fault indices that detect and locate the OPFs without additional hardware. The method proves to be simple and independent of the operating point, control technique, and drive parameters. Comparative experimental results confirm the capability of the proposed method to achieve fast detection times with good robustness.

TL;DR: A novel method is presented to address the stochastically stability analysis and satisfies a given $H_{2}$ performance index simultaneously and an event-triggered scheme is proposed to determine whether the networks should be updated at the trigger instants decided by the event-threshold.
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the fault detection filtering for complex systems over communication networks subject to nonhomogeneous Markovian parameters. A residual signal is generated that gives a satisfactory estimation of the fault, and an event-triggered scheme is proposed to determine whether the networks should be updated at the trigger instants decided by the event-threshold. Moreover, a random process is employed to model the phenomenon of malicious packet losses. Consequently, a novel method is presented to address the stochastically stability analysis and satisfies a given $H_{2}$ performance index simultaneously. The condition of the existence of the filter design algorithm is derived by a convex optimization approach to estimate the faults and to generate a residual. Finally, the proposed fault detection filtering method is then applied to an industrial nonisothermal continuous stirred tank reactor under realistic network conditions. Simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed design method and the designed filter.

26 Oct 2004TL;DR: An analysis based on a probabilistic model for resistive short defects indicates that the coverage loss for unmodeled defects is negligible for relatively low values of n.
Abstract: We present a technique for making a circuit ready for logic built-in self test by masking unknown values at its outputs. In order to keep the silicon area cost low, some known bits in output responses are also allowed to be masked. These bits are selected based on a stuck-at n-detection based metric, such that the impact of masking on the defect coverage is minimal. An analysis based on a probabilistic model for resistive short defects indicates that the coverage loss for unmodeled defects is negligible for relatively low values of n.

TL;DR: In this article, a finite element model was used to perform simulations under three types of fault conditions, single-phase open circuit fault, phase-to-phase terminal short-circuit, and internal turn-toturn shortcircuit have been studied.
Abstract: Three-phase trapezoidal back-EMF permanent magnet (PM) machines are used in many applications where the reliability and fault tolerance are important requirements. Knowledge of the machine transient processes under various fault conditions is the key issue in evaluating the impact of machine fault on the entire electromechanical system. The machine electrical and mechanical quantities whose transient behaviors are of importance under fault conditions include the voltages and currents of the coils and phases, the electromagnetic torque, and the rotor speed. Experimental test based on true machines for such a purpose is impractical for its high cost and difficulty to make. Computer simulation based on the finite element method has shown its effectiveness in fault study in this paper. Before the finite element model was used to perform simulations under fault conditions, it was validated by test data under normal conditions. Three types of fault conditions-single-phase open circuit fault, phase-to-phase terminal short-circuit, and internal turn-to-turn short-circuit have been studied.

TL;DR: A new form of logic diagnosis is described that is suitable for diagnosing fails in combinational logic and can diagnose failures caused by bridges and opens as well as fails caused by regular stuck-at faults.
Abstract: A new form of logic diagnosis is described that is suitable for diagnosing fails in combinational logic. It can diagnose defects that can affect arbitrarily many elements in the integrated circuit. It operates by first identifying patterns during which only one element is affected by the defect, and then diagnosing the fails observed during the application of such patterns, one pattern at a time. Single stuck-at faults are used for this purpose, and the aggregate of stuck-at fault locations thus identified is then further analyzed to obtain the most accurate estimate of the identities of those elements that can be affected by the defect. This approach to logic diagnosis is as effective as that of classical stuck-at fault-based diagnosis, when the latter applies, but is far more general. In particular, it can diagnose fails caused by bridges and opens as well as fails caused by regular stuck-at faults.
