This paper presents a new observer-based method which deals with the extraction of amplitude of characteristic frequencies for the fault diagnosis in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM). First, a pilot survey is made to investigate the typical harmonics in the line currents of PMSM. Second, an appropriate structure of observer is formulated with the input…

In this paper, the problems of actuator and sensor fault estimation (FE) and fault-tolerant control (FTC) for uncertain nonlinear systems represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models are investigated. First, a robust fuzzy adaptive sliding mode observer (SMO) is designed to simultaneously estimate system states and both actuator and sensor faults. Then, using the obtained on-line…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in conference name. The goal is to propose new fault detection and fault isolation techniques for a polytypic linear parameter-varying system (LPV). In this work, an adaptive observer design is formulated for a given polyquadratic Lyapunov function. Subsequently, new sufficient conditions are given in terms of…

This paper deals with the design of adaptive observer for a class of nonlinear systems with time delays. Within this work, we develop an adaptive observer for a bilinear time delay system, then we extend those results in the presence of Lipschitz nonlinear functions in the system’s dynamics. In the stability analysis of the estimation…

The SoC estimation of Li Ion batteries presents a difficult task for almost applications in order to ensure their higher energy density and their safety. Hence, there have been several methods to optimize the state of charge of the Lithium cells such as observer strategies which have been considered in this work. Kalman filter observer…

This paper focuses on studying the problem of fault tolerant control (FTC), including a detailed fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) module using observer banks which consists of output and unknown input observers applied to a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The main objective of this paper is to use a FDD module here proposed to…

This paper extends some of our research results disseminated in the most recent awarded international conference paper concerning the implementation in real time of a sliding mode observer state estimator. For the same case study developed in the conference paper, more precisely a DC servomotor angular speed control system, we extend the proposed concept of…

We present an inverted pendulum design using readily available V-slot rail components and 3D printing to construct custom parts. To enable the examination of different pendulum characteristics, we constructed three pendulum poles of different lengths. We implemented a brake mechanism to modify sliding friction resistance and built a paddle that can be attached to the…

In the present contribution, a robust output H∞ control ensuring the stability, reliability and security for nonlinear systems when actuator attacks (data deception attacks) occur. A new design method based on the polytopic rewriting of the attacked system as an uncertain one subject to external disturbances will be detailed. Robust polytopic state feedback observer sta-…

In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), especially small and light multicopters driven by electrical motors and batteries, have experienced a boom in applications. The electrical drive system is a central component of these UAVs. This paper introduces the basics of these drives and presents control methods for them using permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs).…

In this study, an adaptive nonlinear sensorless controller for doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by a wind turbine is proposed. The aim is to maximize the extracted power by tracking the wind turbine optimal torque-speed characteristic without the need for rotor speed measurement. This controller ensures a satisfactory tracking of both stator flux and…

This paper considers active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) as a new control approach for pH neutralization process. The pH process is challenging to control due to its sensitivity to disturbance, nonlinear dynamics, and time-varying characteristics. Special attention is paid to the impact of disturbances typically exists in the chemical process. First, the pH neutralization process…

This paper deals with the control problem for nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots moving on the plane, and in particular, the use of a Fuzzy controller technique for achieving a given motion task which consists of following a rectilinear trajectory until an obstacle occurs on the path. After a background part, in which the fundamental knowledge…

Predicting the impact of suicide on incidental witnesses at an early stage helps to avert the possible side effect. When suicide is committed in public, incidental observers are left to grapple with it. In many cases, these incidental witnesses tend to experience the emotional side effect with time. In this study, we employed a Machine…

The aim of the present work is to guarantee the trajectory tracking of a nonlinear biological process and compare two control approaches. The main objective of this work is to elaborate a fuzzy model and build a fuzzy controllers for a biological process by using the fuzzy Takagi-Sugeno. Two controllers are synthesized, the parallel distributed…

This paper deals with the problem of Fault Tolerant Control (FTC) using PID-type Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) for an Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV) described by a switched discrete-time system with input disturbances and actuator faults. In order to detect the faults, Unknown Input Observers (UIOs) are designed and formulated in terms of Lyapunov theory and…
