In the current paper, a residual generation filter with finite memory structure is proposed for sensor fault detection. The proposed finite memory residual generation filter provides the residual by real-time filtering of fault vector using only the most recent finite measurements and inputs on the window. It is shown that the residual given by the proposed residual generation filter provides t...

In the present work, the solidification process was simulated in both macroscopic and microscopic scales. Two-dimensional heat transfer equation for conduction was applied for macroscopic modeling using enthalpy formulation and finite element method. In order to decrease execution time and/or memory capacity in finite analysis, skyline mathematical technique was adapted. The microenthalpy metho...

on 11th of august 2012 the region was surprisingly struck by a shallow mw 6.4 (usgs) earthquake with pure right-lateral strike-slip character only about 50 km north of the north-tabriz fault. an east-west striking surface rupture of about 20 km length was observed in the field by geological survey of iran. only 11 minutes later and about 6 km further nw a second shallow event with mw 6.2 occurr...

This paper discusses the modeling and analysis of three major fault-tolerant software system architec-tures: DRB (Distributed Recovery Blocks), NVP (N-Version Programming) and NSCP (N Self-Checking Programming). In the system-level reliability modeling domain, fault tree analysis techniques and Markov reward modeling techniques are combined to incorporate transient and permanent hardware faults...

In this paper, we will consider the application of notions and techniques from fuzzy logic, fault trees, and Markov modeling to robot fault tolerance. Fuzzy logic lends itself to quantitative reliability calculations in robotics. The crisp failure rates which are usually used are not actually known, while fuzzy logic, due to its ability to work with the actual approximate (fuzzy) failure rates ...

We study the problem of fault diagnosis, i.e., localization of difference(s) between an implementation and a specification in systems modelled by finite state machines. We show that even considering only a single fault in a finite state machine there are some situations when the exact diagnosis of the fault cannot be assured. We give an algorithm for fault diagnosis. If it is possible the proce...

A dynamic rotor interturn short circuit fault may occur during synchronous generator operation. However, there is no method to analyze the generator’s characteristics under and identify fault. In order solve this problem, a new analysis model creatively proposed through mathematical derivation. Firstly, vibration mechanical response magnetic pull excitation are theoretically analyzed. addition,...

in this research, a new mathematical modeling on strength changes due to reservoir elastic stresses across the preexisting fault plane is introduced. the method has been applied to the dalpari fault, which is one of the potential seismic sources in the vicinity of the karkheh reservoir. in this method the distribution of total stress across the fault cannot be determined because the initial str...
