Book Description
This book considers two popular topics: fault detection and isolation (FDI) and flight data estimation using flush air data sensing (FADS) systems. Literature surveys, comparison tests, simulations and wind tunnel tests are performed. In both cases, a UAV platform is considered for demonstration purposes. In the first part of the book, FDI is considered for sensor faults where a neural network approach is implemented. FDI is applied both in academia and industry resulting in many publications over the past 50 years or so. However few publications consider neural networks in comparison to traditional techniques such as observer based, parameter estimations and parity space approaches. The second part of this book focuses on how to estimate flight data (angle of attack, airspeed) using a matrix of pressure sensors and a neural network model. In conclusion this book can serve as an introduction to FDI and FADS systems, a literature survey, and a case study for UAV applications.

A fault detection method for FADS system based on interval-valued neutrosophic sets, belief rule base, and D-S evidence reasoning
Author: Qianlei Jia
Publisher: Infinite Study
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 20
Book Description
Fault detection, with the characteristics of strong uncertainty and randomness, has always been one of the research hotspots in the field of aerospace. Considering that devices will inevitably encounter various unknown interference in the process of use, which greatly limits the performance of many traditional fault detection methods. Therefore, the main aim of this paper is to address this problem from the perspective of uncertainty and randomness of measurement signal. In information engineering, interval-valued neutrosophic sets (IVNSs), belief rule base (BRB), and Dempster-Shafer (D-S) evidence reasoning are always characterized by the strong ability in revealing uncertainty, but each has its drawbacks. As a result, the three theories are firstly combined in this paper to form a powerful fault detection algorithm. Besides, a series of innovations are proposed to improve the method, including a new score function based on p-norm for IVNSs and a new approach of calculating the similarity between IVNSs, which are both proved by authoritative prerequisites. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, flush air data sensing (FADS), a technologically advanced airborne sensor, is adopted in this paper. The aerodynamic model of FADS is analyzed in detail using knowledge of aerodynamics under subsonic and supersonic conditions, meanwhile, the high-precision model is established based on the aerodynamic database obtained from CFD software.

Advances in Aerospace Guidance, Navigation and Control

ISBN: 3642382533
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 773
Book Description
Following the successful 1st CEAS (Council of European Aerospace Societies) Specialist Conference on Guidance, Navigation and Control (CEAS EuroGNC) held in Munich, Germany in 2011, Delft University of Technology happily accepted the invitation of organizing the 2nd CEAS EuroGNC in Delft, The Netherlands in 2013. The goal of the conference is to promote new advances in aerospace GNC theory and technologies for enhancing safety, survivability, efficiency, performance, autonomy and intelligence of aerospace systems using on-board sensing, computing and systems. A great push for new developments in GNC are the ever higher safety and sustainability requirements in aviation. Impressive progress was made in new research fields such as sensor and actuator fault detection and diagnosis, reconfigurable and fault tolerant flight control, online safe flight envelop prediction and protection, online global aerodynamic model identification, online global optimization and flight upset recovery. All of these challenges depend on new online solutions from on-board computing systems. Scientists and engineers in GNC have been developing model based, sensor based as well as knowledge based approaches aiming for highly robust, adaptive, nonlinear, intelligent and autonomous GNC systems. Although the papers presented at the conference and selected in this book could not possibly cover all of the present challenges in the GNC field, many of them have indeed been addressed and a wealth of new ideas, solutions and results were proposed and presented. For the 2nd CEAS Specialist Conference on Guidance, Navigation and Control the International Program Committee conducted a formal review process. Each paper was reviewed in compliance with good journal practice by at least two independent and anonymous reviewers. The papers published in this book were selected from the conference proceedings based on the results and recommendations from the reviewers.

Control Systems with Saturating Inputs
Author: Maria Letizia Corradini
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1447125061
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Saturation nonlinearities are ubiquitous in engineering systems: every physical actuator or sensor is subject to saturation owing to its maximum and minimum limits. Input saturation is an operating condition that is well known to the control community for its “side effects”, which cause conventional controllers to lose their closed-loop performance as well as control authority in stabilization. Therefore, the practical application of control theory cannot avoid taking into account saturation nonlinearities in actuators, explicitly dealing with constraints in control design.

Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace Vehicles
Author: Ali Zolghadri
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1447153138
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace demonstrates the attractive potential of recent developments in control for resolving such issues as flight performance, self protection and extended-life structures. Importantly, the text deals with a number of practically significant considerations: tuning, complexity of design, real-time capability, evaluation of worst-case performance, robustness in harsh environments, and extensibility when development or adaptation is required. Coverage of such issues helps to draw the advanced concepts arising from academic research back towards the technological concerns of industry. Initial coverage of basic definitions and ideas and a literature review gives way to a treatment of electrical flight control system failures: oscillatory failure, runaway, and jamming. Advanced fault detection and diagnosis for linear and linear-parameter-varying systems are described. Lastly recovery strategies appropriate to remaining actuator/sensor/communications resources are developed. The authors exploit experience gained in research collaboration with academic and major industrial partners to validate advanced fault diagnosis and fault-tolerant control techniques with realistic benchmarks or real-world aeronautical and space systems. Consequently, the results presented in Fault Diagnosis and Fault-Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace, will be of interest in both academic and aerospatial-industrial milieux.
