The main goal of Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) processes is to identify faults, determine their sources, recognize solutions before the system further harmed or service lost [...]

Commercial buildings often experience faults that produce undesirable behavior in building systems. Building faults waste energy, decrease occupants’ comfort, and increase operating costs. Automated fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) tools for buildings help building owners discover and identify the root causes of faults in building systems, equipment, and controls. Proper implementation of FD...

Recent market trend of eco-friendly products let the manufacturers be ready for the high quality of maintenance technologies to assure the system’s high efficiency during its entire life span. However, this post-manufacturing activities burden the manufacturer with high warranty cost. Therefore, in order to promote economical businesses, the manufacturers are developing various fault detection ...

This paper presents an applicable procedure for Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) in a realistic nonlinear six degree-of-freedom unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) model. The work has been developed based on the Matlab/Simulink environment of the NASA Generic Transport Model (GTM) UAV under the NASA Aviation Safety Program (AvSP). By introducing the partial loss fault in aircraft actuators into th...

The primary goal of the research described in this paper was to apply a decoupling-based fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) technique and economic assessment method to light commercial cooling and heating equipment in California. The paper describes the decouplingbased FDD methodology and the economic assessment method. The methods have been applied to a number of field sites. Detailed results...

Existing methods addressing automated fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) for vapor compression air conditioning system have good performance for faults that occur individually, but they have difficulty in handling multiple-simultaneous faults. The decouplingbased (DB) FDD method explicitly addresses diagnostics for multiple-simultaneous faults for the first time. This paper is the second part ...

in this paper, the fuzzy system has been used for fault detection and diagnosis of a yeast fermentation bioreactor based on measurements corrupted by noise. in one case, parameters of membership functions are selected in a conventional manner. in another case, using certainty factors between normal and faulty conditions the optimal values of these parameters have been obtained through the genet...

Efficient and robust fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) can potentially play an important role in developing building management systems (BMS) for high performance buildings. Our research indicates that, in comparison to traditional model-based or data-driven methods, the combination of time series modeling and machine learning techniques produces higher accuracy and lower false alarm rates in...

Data-driven machine learning (DDML) methods for the fault diagnosis and detection (FDD) in nuclear power plant (NPP) are of emerging interest recent years. However, there still lacks research on comprehensive reviewing state-of-the-art progress DDML FDD NPP. In this review, classifications, principles, characteristics firstly introduced, which include supervised type, unsupervised so on. Then, ...
