There is a need for better integration of the fault tolerant and the control designs for safety critical systems such as aircraft. The dependability of current designs is assessed primarily with measures of the interconnection of fault tolerant components: the reliability function and the mean time to failure. These measures do not directly take into account the interaction of the fault toleran...

In this paper, we investigate the robust fault-tolerant finitetime stabilization problem of switched system with asynchronous switching. The asynchronous switching idea originates from the fact that switching instants of the controllers lag behind or exceed those of subsystems. The attention is focused on designing a robust fault-tolerant asynchronously switched controller that guarantees the f...

This article studies the distributed fault estimation (DFE) and fault-tolerant control for continuous-time interconnected systems. Using associated information among subsystems to design DFE observer can improve accuracy of Based on static output feedback (SOF), global outputs systems are used construct a (DFTC). The multiconstrained methods proposed enhance transient performance ability suppre...

In this paper, the problem of guaranteed cost fault-tolerant control for networked control systems (NCSs) is discussed based on Lyapunov stability theory and Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI). The sufficient conditions possessing robust integrity against actuator failures are given by adopting memory state feedback control law, which can meet a cost function for closed-loop networked control syste...

The deployment of computer systems for the control of mission critical processes has become the norm in many industrial and commercial markets. The analysis of the reliability of these systems is usually understood in terms of the Mean Time to Failure. The design and analysis of high reliability systems is now a mature science. Starting with fault–tolerant central office switches (ESS4), dual r...
