SIMONA Flight Simulator Implementation of a Fault Tolerant Sliding Mode Scheme with Control Allocation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper considers a sliding mode based allocation scheme for fault tolerant control. The scheme allows redistribution of the control signals to the remaining functioning actuators when a fault or failure occurs. It is shown that faults and even certain total actuator failures can be handled directly without reconfiguring the controller. The results obtained from implementing the controller on the SIMONA flight motion simulator show good performance in both nominal and failure scenarios even in wind and gust conditions.

Evaluation of a Sliding Mode Fault Tolerant Controller for the EL-AL Incident
This paper presents piloted flight simulator results associated with the EL-AL flight 1862 scenario using a model reference–based sliding mode control allocation scheme for fault tolerant control. The proposed controller design was carried out without any knowledge of the type of failure, and in the absence of any fault detection and isolation strategy. This is motivated by the fact that the fl...
متن کاملFault Tolerant Sliding Mode Control Design with Piloted Simulator Evaluation
This paper considers sliding mode allocation schemes for fault tolerant control. The schemes allow redistribution of the control signals to the remaining functioning actuators when a fault or failure occurs. The paper analyzes the schemes and determines conditions under which closed–loop stability is retained for a certain class of faults and failures. It is shown that faults and even certain t...

متن کاملActive Fault Tolerant Control of Octorotor UAV using Dynamic Control Allocation
In this paper, an active fault tolerant control scheme based on Dynamic Control Allocation method for Octorotor UAVs is developed. A Sliding Mode Observer is used to detect online any fault or failure affecting the UAV during flight. Whenever a fault or a total failure of a rotor is detected, the gain vector of the dynamic control allocator is updated resulting in the redistribution of the cont...
