System redundancy in aircraft is very important as it ensures faulty components would not jeopardize the safety of crew and passengers. High priority system such as flight control computers, instruments system and controller for control surface mechanism have double or triple redundancy to maintain the aircraft safety. While full scale aircraft has multiple redundancy system installed, small un...

Fault diagnosis of steam turbine is essential to predict further development and to anticipate it by taking appropriate measures. Fault diagnosis of modern industrial power plants by human inspection is time-consuming and expensive as well as fault diagnostic system modelling based on conventional mathematical tools is not suitable for ill defined and uncertain system. Therefore, it is necessar...

This paper introduces a novel thruster fault diagnosis and accommodation system for open-frame underwater vehicles with abrupt faults. The proposed system consists of two subsystems: a fault diagnosis subsystem and a fault accommodation sub-system. In the fault diagnosis subsystem a ICMAC(Improved Credit Assignment Cerebellar Model Articulation Controllers) neural network is used to realize the...

In this paper, in order to increase the efficiency, to reduce the cost and to prevent the failures of wind turbines, which lead to an extensive break down, a robust fault diagnosis system is proposed for V47/660kW wind turbine operated in Manjil wind farm, Gilan province, Iran. According to the acquired data from Iran wind turbine industry, common faults of the wind turbine such as sensor fault...

Fault injection is an important technique for the evaluation of design metrics such as reliability, safety, and fault coverage. Fault injection involves inserting faults into a system and monitoring the system to determine its behavior in response to the fault. Recently, designers are realizing the advantages of using simulation to perform fault injection on a model of the design, as opposed to...

Because of high reliability and other characteristics, High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Light system had important applications in power transmission system. In order to ensure its operation safety, the fault diagnosis technologies based on observer were researched. The model of HVDC light system was introduced, and the types and characteristics of the system were analyzed. Several common fau...
