is paper introduces a software prototype called ARPHA for on-board diagnosis, prognosis and recovery. e goal is to allow the design of an innovative on-board FDIR (Fault Detection, Identification and Recovery) process for autonomous systems, able to deal with uncertain system/environment interactions, uncertain dynamic system evolution, partial observability and detection of recovery policies...

the microstructure of dual phase steels can be considered as a matrix of ferrite phase reinforced by martensite particles. recent measurements show that the mechanical properties of the ferrite phase are changed with the distance from the martensite grains. in this paper, a new method has been proposed to consider this phenomenon in finite element modeling of dual phase steels microstructure. i...

Fault trees provide a graphical and logical framework for analyzing the reliability of systems. A fault tree provides a conceptually simple modeling framework to represent the system-level interactions between component reliabilities. Dynamic fault trees have been shown particularly useful for reliability analysis of embedded computer systems. Dynamic fault trees are a superset of traditional (...

This paper presents the application of radial basis neural networks to the development of a novel method for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of synchronous generators. In the proposed scheme, flux linkage analysis is used to reach a decision. Probabilistic neural network (PNN) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) are used in design of fault diagnosis system. PNN as main part of thi...

In this paper, we are concerned with protecting elliptic curve computation in a tamper proof device by protecting finite field computation against active side channel attacks, i.e., fault attacks. We propose residue representation of the field elements for fault tolerant Montgomery residue representation multiplication algorithm, by providing fault models for fault attacks, and countermeasures ...
