The purpose is to design a decentralized H-infinity output feedback controller to.stabilize the given system and achieve a certain H-infinity performance requirement both in the normal situation and in the situation where any one of the local controllers fails. The designed problem is reduced to a feasibility problem of a set of bilinear matrix inequalities （BMIs）. An algorithm is proposed to solve the BMIs. First, the normal situation is considered where all the local controllers are functioning. The local controllers are obtained from a standard centralized H-infinity controller by using a homotopy method imposing a structural constraint progressively. Secondly, the above case is extended to the one where any one of the local controllers fails. We again use a homotopy method where the coefficient matrices of the failed controller are decreased progressively to zero. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by an example.展开更多

This paper introduces relevant concepts of the fault-tolerant guaranteed cost control and formulates the robust iterative learning reliable guaranteed cost controller (ILRGCC). A significant advantage is that the proposed ILRGCC design method can be used for on-line optimization against batch-to-batch process uncertainties to realize robust tracking of set-point trajectory in time and batch-to-batch sequences. For the convenience of implementation, only measured output errors of current and previous cycles are used to design a synthetic controller for iterative learning control, consisting of dynamic output feedback plus feed-forward control. The proposed controller can not only guarantee the closed-loop convergency along time and cycle sequences but also satisfy the H∞performance level and a cost function with upper bounds for all admissible uncertainties and any actuator failures. Sufficient conditions for the controller solution are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), and design procedures, which formulate a convex optimization problem with LMI constraints, are presented. An example of injection molding is given to illustrate the effectiveness and advantages of the ILRGCC design approach.展开更多

Subsequently, in order to ensure the normal execution of the online learning algorithm, a stability criterion condition is created to obtain an initial admissible tracking policy. Then, the constructed model neural network(NN) is pretrained to recognize the system dynamics and calculate trajectory control. The critic and action NNs are constructed to output the approximate cost function and approximate tracking control,respectively. The Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation of the error system is solved online through the action-critic framework. In theoretical analysis, it is proved that all concerned signals are uniformly ultimately bounded according to the Lyapunov principle.The tracking control law can approach the optimal tracking control within a finite approximation error. Finally, two experimental examples are conducted to indicate the effectiveness and superiority of the developed fault-tolerant tracking control scheme.展开更多

文摘This article presents an adaptive fault-tolerant tracking control strategy for unknown affine nonlinear systems subject to actuator faults and external disturbances.To address the hyperparameter initialization challenges inherent in conventional neural network training,an improved self-organizing radial basis function neural network(SRBFNN)with an input-dependent variable structure is developed.Furthermore,a novel selforganizing RBFNN-based observer is introduced to estimate system states across all dimensions.Leveraging the reconstructed states,the proposed adaptive controller effectively compensates for all uncertainties,including estimation errors in the observer,ensuring accurate state tracking with reduced control effort.The uniform ultimate boundedness of all closed-loop signals and tracking errors is rigorously established via Lyapunov stability analysis.Finally,simulations on two different nonlinear systems comprehensively validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed control approach.

文摘In this paper, a fault-tolerant-based online critic learning algorithm is developed to solve the optimal tracking control issue for nonaffine nonlinear systems with actuator faults.First, a novel augmented plant is constructed by fusing the system state and the reference trajectory, which aims to transform the optimal fault-tolerant tracking control design with actuator faults into the optimal regulation problem of the conventional nonlinear error system. Subsequently, in order to ensure the normal execution of the online learning algorithm, a stability criterion condition is created to obtain an initial admissible tracking policy. Then, the constructed model neural network(NN) is pretrained to recognize the system dynamics and calculate trajectory control. The critic and action NNs are constructed to output the approximate cost function and approximate tracking control,respectively. The Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation of the error system is solved online through the action-critic framework. In theoretical analysis, it is proved that all concerned signals are uniformly ultimately bounded according to the Lyapunov principle.The tracking control law can approach the optimal tracking control within a finite approximation error. Finally, two experimental examples are conducted to indicate the effectiveness and superiority of the developed fault-tolerant tracking control scheme.
文摘Fault tolerance is essential for reliable and sustainable smart city infrastructure.Interconnected IoT systems must function under frequent faults,limited resources,and complex conditions.Existing research covers various fault-tolerant methods.However,current reviews often lack system-level critique and multidimensional analysis.This study provides a structured review of fault tolerance strategies across layered IoT architectures in smart cities.It evaluates fault detection,containment,and recovery techniques using specific metrics.These include fault visibility,propagation depth,containment score,and energy-resilience trade-offs.The analysis uses comparative tables,architecture-aware discussions,and conceptual plots.It investigates the impact of fault tolerance on decision-making in Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition(SCADA)systems,sensor networks,and real-time controllers.Simulation results and logic-based design support the relationships between evaluation metrics.Findings show a common reliance on redundancy and reactive methods.Many techniques fail to address cross-layer propagation,context-aware adaptation,and silent fault impact on user trust.The study combines these overlooked aspects into a system-level framework.This survey identifies performance bottlenecks and supports the design of adaptive,energy-efficient,and transparent IoT systems.The results contribute to bridging technical reliability with public trust,supporting scalable and responsible smart city development.

文摘The aircraft braking system is critical to ensure the safe take-off and landing of the aircraft.However,the braking system is often exposed to high temperatures and strong vibration working environments,which makes the sensor prone to failure.Sensor failure has the potential to compromise aircraft safety.In order to improve the safety of the aircraft braking system,a fault detection and fault-tolerant control(FDFTC)strategy for the aircraft brake pressure sensor is designed.Firstly,a model based on a bidirectional long short-term memory(Bi-LSTM)network is constructed to estimate the brake pressure.Then,the residual sequence is obtained by comparing the measured pressure with the estimated pressure.On this basis,the improved sequential probability ratio test(SPRT)method based on mathematical statistics is applied to analyze the residual sequence to detect the fault.Finally,simulation and hardware-in-the-loop(HIL)testing results indicate that the proposed FDFTC strategy can detect sensor faults in time and efficiently complete braking when faults occur.Hence,the proposed FDFTC strategy can effectively deal with the faults of the aircraft brake pressure sensor,which is of great significance to improve the reliability and safety of the aircraft.

文摘In this paper,a novel method for investigating the particle-crushing behavior of breeding particles in a fusion blanket is proposed.The fractal theory and Weibull distribution are combined to establish a theoretical model,and its validity was verified using a simple impact test.A crushable discrete element method(DEM)framework is built based on the previously established theoretical model.The tensile strength,which considers the fractal theory,size effect,and Weibull variation,was assigned to each generated particle.The assigned strength is then used for crush detection by comparing it with its maximum tensile stress.Mass conservation is ensured by inserting a series of sub-particles whose total mass was equal to the quality loss.Based on the crushable DEM framework,a numerical simulation of the crushing behavior of a pebble bed with hollow cylindrical geometry under a uniaxial compression test was performed.The results of this investigation showed that the particle withstands the external load by contact and sliding at the beginning of the compression process,and the results confirmed that crushing can be considered an important method of resisting the increasing external load.A relatively regular particle arrangement aids in resisting the load and reduces the occurrence of particle crushing.However,a limit exists to the promotion of resistance.When the strain increases beyond this limit,the distribution of the crushing position tends to be isotropic over the entire pebble bed.The theoretical model and crushable DEM framework provide a new method for exploring the pebble bed in a fusion reactor,considering particle crushing.

文摘Effective partitioning is crucial for enabling parallel restoration of power systems after blackouts.This paper proposes a novel partitioning method based on deep reinforcement learning.First,the partitioning decision process is formulated as a Markov decision process(MDP)model to maximize the modularity.Corresponding key partitioning constraints on parallel restoration are considered.Second,based on the partitioning objective and constraints,the reward function of the partitioning MDP model is set by adopting a relative deviation normalization scheme to reduce mutual interference between the reward and penalty in the reward function.The soft bonus scaling mechanism is introduced to mitigate overestimation caused by abrupt jumps in the reward.Then,the deep Q network method is applied to solve the partitioning MDP model and generate partitioning schemes.Two experience replay buffers are employed to speed up the training process of the method.Finally,case studies on the IEEE 39-bus test system demonstrate that the proposed method can generate a high-modularity partitioning result that meets all key partitioning constraints,thereby improving the parallelism and reliability of the restoration process.Moreover,simulation results demonstrate that an appropriate discount factor is crucial for ensuring both the convergence speed and the stability of the partitioning training.
