文摘This paper investigates the adaptive fuzzy finite-time output-feedback fault-tolerant control (FTC) problemfor a class of nonlinear underactuated wheeled mobile robots (UWMRs) system with intermittent actuatorfaults. The UWMR system includes unknown nonlinear dynamics and immeasurable states. Fuzzy logic systems(FLSs) are utilized to work out immeasurable functions. Furthermore, with the support of the backsteppingcontrol technique and adaptive fuzzy state observer, a fuzzy adaptive finite-time output-feedback FTC scheme isdeveloped under the intermittent actuator faults. It is testifying the scheme can ensure the controlled nonlinearUWMRs is stable and the estimation errors are convergent. Finally, the comparison results and simulationvalidate the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy adaptive finite-time FTC approach.

文摘In recent years,motor drive systems have garnered increasing attention due to their high efficiency and superior control performance.This is especially apparent in aerospace,marine propulsion,and electric vehicles,where high performance,efficiency,and reliability are crucial.The ability of the drive system to maintain long-term fault-tolerant control(FTC)operation after a failure is essential.The likelihood of inverter failures surpasses that of other components in the drive system,highlighting its critical importance.Long-term FTC operation ensures the system retains its fundamental functions until safe repairs or replacements can be made.The focus of developing a FTC strategy has shifted from basic FTC operations to enhancing the post-fault quality to accommodate the realities of prolonged operation post-failure.This paper primarily investigates FTC strategies for inverter failures in various motor drive systems over the past decade.These strategies are categorized into three types based on post-fault operational quality:rescue,remedy,and reestablishment.The paper discusses each typical control strategy and its research focus,the strengths and weaknesses of various algorithms,and recent advancements in FTC.Finally,this review summarizes effective FTC techniques for inverter failures in motor drive systems and suggests directions for future research.

文摘This paper develops a novel Neural Network(NN)-based adaptive nonsingular practical predefined-time controller for the hypersonic morphing aircraft subject to actuator faults. Firstly, a novel Lyapunov criterion of practical predefined-time stability is established. Following the proposed criterion, a tangent function based nonsingular predefined-time sliding manifold and the control strategy are developed. Secondly, the radial basis function NN with a low-complexity adaptation mechanism is incorporated into the controller to tackle the actuator faults and uncertainties. Thirdly, rigorous theoretical proof reveals that the attitude tracking errors can converge to a small region around the origin within a predefined time, while all signals in the closed-loop system remain bounded. Finally, numerical simulation results are presented to verify the effectiveness and improved performance of the proposed control scheme.

文摘Blockchain has been widely used in finance,the Internet of Things(IoT),supply chains,and other scenarios as a revolutionary technology.Consensus protocol plays a vital role in blockchain,which helps all participants to maintain the storage state consistently.However,with the improvement of network environment complexity and system scale,blockchain development is limited by the performance,security,and scalability of the consensus protocol.To address this problem,this paper introduces the collaborative filtering mechanism commonly used in the recommendation system into the Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance(PBFT)and proposes a Byzantine fault-tolerant(BFT)consensus protocol based on collaborative filtering recommendation(CRBFT).Specifically,an improved collaborative filtering recommendation method is designed to use the similarity between a node’s recommendation opinions and those of the recommender as a basis for determining whether to adopt the recommendation opinions.This can amplify the recommendation voice of good nodes,weaken the impact of cunningmalicious nodes on the trust value calculation,andmake the calculated resultsmore accurate.In addition,the nodes are given voting power according to their trust value,and a weight randomelection algorithm is designed and implemented to reduce the risk of attack.The experimental results show that CRBFT can effectively eliminate various malicious nodes and improve the performance of blockchain systems in complex network environments,and the feasibility of CRBFT is also proven by theoretical analysis.

文摘Double-integrator multi-agent systems(MASs)might not achieve dynamical consensus,even if only partial agents suffer from self-sensing function failures(SSFFs).SSFFs might be asynchronous in real engineering application.The existing fault-tolerant dynamical consensus protocol suitable for synchronous SSFFs cannot be directly used to tackle fault-tolerant dynamical consensus of double-integrator MASs with partial agents subject to asynchronous SSFFs.Motivated by these facts,this paper explores a new fault-tolerant dynamical consensus protocol suitable for asynchronous SSFFs.First,multi-hop communication together with the idea of treating asynchronous SSFFs as multiple piecewise synchronous SSFFs is used for recovering the connectivity of network topology among all normal agents.Second,a fault-tolerant dynamical consensus protocol is designed for double-integrator MASs by utilizing the history information of an agent subject to SSFF for computing its own state information at the instants when its minimum-hop normal neighbor set changes.Then,it is theoretically proved that if the strategy of network topology connectivity recovery and the fault-tolerant dynamical consensus protocol with proper time-varying gains are used simultaneously,double-integrator MASs with all normal agents and all agents subject to SSFFs can reach dynamical consensus.Finally,comparison numerical simulations are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

文摘This study presents a tracking and fault-tolerant controller architecture for uncertain steer-by-wire(SbW)systems using model predictive control in the presence of actuator malfunction and the nonlinear properties of tire lateral stiffness coefficients.By changing the internal model,the model predictive control(MPC)technique was used to achieve optimal tracking performance under the actuator output limitation variation problem and uncertain system parameters.System parameters and state estimates were simultaneously provided by the fault detection and isolation modules to detect actuator failure using the coupling estimation approach.The estimation accuracy was further improved by considering the replacement errors as virtual noise,which was also estimated during the estimation process.Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed fault-tolerant control technique can identify motor faults and conduct fault-tolerant control based on fault identification,showing good front-wheel steering angle tracking performance under both normal and fault conditions.

文摘In this paper,a novel robust composite sliding mode controller(RCSMC)is proposed to accommodate actuator faults for a quadrotor UAV subject to unknown disturbances.The closed-loop system is divided into two parts:the nominal system without disturbances which is controlled by the designed baseline controller,and the equivalent total disturbances including parameter uncertainties and actuator faults,which is estimated by the developed adaptive finite-time extended state observer(AFTESO).The estimated total disturbances are rejected by RCSMC and the asymptotic stability of flight control system is guaranteed.The proposed method is verified through numerical simulations.
文摘The photovoltaic system is experiencing great growth in the production of electrical energy these days.It plays a vital role in the production of electrical energy in isolated towns.It is generally either stand-alone or connected to a network.The energy produced by the photovoltaic generator is in continuous form;the conversion from its continuous form to the alternating form requires a converter:the inverter.In order to improve the quality of the waveform,we moved from the classic solar inverter to multilevel inverters.These multilevel inverters are equipped with power switches which are required to withstand strong fluctuations in the voltage produced by the GPV(photovoltaic generator).It is obvious that the degradation of the inverter leads to a distortion of the wave quality.This article presents the simulation of the GPV-Chopper Boost-Inverter chain in fault-tolerant cascaded H-bridges in order to overcome the difficulties of voltage constraints experienced by power switches(IGBT:insulated gate bipolar transistor).The results of simulations carried out in Matlab/Simulink show good performance of the designed inverter model.

文摘This paper presents a novel method for optimizing the contact force of a hexapod robot to enhance its dynamic motion stability when one of its legs fails.The proposed approach aims to improve the Force Angle Stability Margin(FASM)and adapt the foot trajectory through contact force optimization to achieve safe and stable motion on various terrains.The foot force optimization approach is designed to optimize the FASM,a factor rarely considered in existing contact force optimization methods.By formulating the problem of enhancing the motion stability of the hexapod robot as a Quadratic Programming(QP)optimization problem,this approach can effectively address this issue.Simulations of a hexapod robot using a fault-tolerant gait,along with real field experiments,were conducted to validate the effectiveness and feasibility of the contact force optimization approach.The results demonstrate that this approach can be used to design a motion controller for a hexapod robot with a significantly improved motion stability.In summary,the proposed contact force optimization method offers a promising solution for enhancing the motion stability of hexapod robots with single leg failures and has the potential to significantly advance the development of fault-tolerant hexapod robots for various applications.
