Fault tolerant control method for 6-pole homopolar magnetic bearings are presented. If some of the coils or power amplifiers suddenly fail, the remaining coil currents change via a novel distribution matrix such that the same magnetic forces are maintained before and after failure. Lagrange multiplier optimization with equality constraints is utilized to calculate the optimal distribution matrix that maximizes the load capacity of the failed bearing. Some numerical examples of distribution matrices are provided to illustrate this control method.

This paper addresses the robust fault tolerant controller design problems of static output systems with disturbance. The fault is expressed by the abrupt chattering of system parameters. The design conditions are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities and linear matrix equalities. An illustrative example is provided to verify performances of the proposed controller.

As many systems depend on electronics, concern for fault tolerance is growing rapidly. For example, a car with its steering controlled by electronics and no mechanical linkage from steering wheel to front tires (steer-by-wire) should be fault tolerant because a failure can come without any warning and its effect is devastating. In order to make system fault tolerant, there has been a body of research mainly from aerospace field. This paper presents the structure of predictive hybrid redundancy that can remove most erroneous values. In addition, several numerical simulation results are given where the predictive hybrid redundancy outperforms wellknown average and median voters.

In this research a fault-tolerant and bumpless switching control is proposed for boiler systems used in the power plants. Firstly, three operating points are selected to control the nonlinear boiler through the full operational range, and the $H_{\infty}$ loop shaping controller and the model-based predictive controller(MBPC) are designed. To prevent the windup and bump problems which are caused by the actuator saturation and the controller switching, an anti-windup and bumpless transfer technique is adopted to the $H_{\infty}$ loop shaping controller. Also the constrained gain-scheduling technique is applied to MBPC to achieve the same objective. Secondly, the fault-tolerant control technique is proposed to continue the control action without stopping the boiler operation even in case of some faults. Through various simulation studies, the performances of the proposed control techniques are demonstrated.

An active Fault Tolerant Model Predictive Control (FTMPC) using Fuzzy scheduler is developed. Fault tolerant Control (FTC) system stages are broadly classified into two namely Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) and fault accommodation. Basically, the faults are identified by means of state estimation techniques. Then using the decision based approach it is isolated. This is usually performed using soft computing techniques. Fuzzy Decision Making (FDM) system classifies the faults. After identification and classification of the faults, the model is selected by using the information obtained from FDI. Then this model is fed into FTC in the form of MPC scheme by Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy scheduler. The Fault tolerance is performed by switching the appropriate model for each identified faults. Thus by incorporating the fuzzy scheduled based FTC it becomes more efficient. The system will be thereafter able to detect the faults, isolate it and also able to accommodate the faults in the sensors and actuators of the Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) process while the conventional MPC does not have the ability to perform it.

전형적인 컬퓨터보다 훨씬 강력한 계산 능력을 얻기 위해 병렬 컴퓨터 구조에 대한 많은 연가 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 컴퓨터들은 통상 상호 연결 네트워크(Interconnection Network)로 연결된 많은 수의 처리기들로 구성된다. 그중 중요한 한 부류가 초대규모 집적(Very Large Scale Integration) 또는 웨이퍼규모 집적(Wafer Scale Integration)을 이용한 셀룰러 병렬 처리기로 하나의 칩이나 웨이퍼에 단지 이웃으로만 연결된 많은 수의 단순 조를 가지는 처리기로 구성된다. 이런 셀룰러 병렬 처리기틀에 반드시 수반되는 문제가 재구현(Reconfiguration)으로 세가지 유형을 정의할 수 있는데 본 논문에서는 이 세가지 재구현 문제, 즉 결함 허용 재구현(Fault-Tolerant Reconfiguration), 기능적 재구현(Functional Reconfiguration), 그리고 통합 재구현(Integrated Reconfiguration)에 대하여 논하였다. 본 논문은 결함 진단 및 검출(Fault Detection and Fault Location) 제어 방법, 구성(Configuration) 제어방법, 재구현의 수행 단계 등 결함 허용 재구현과 기능적 재구현시 필요한 여러 고려 사항을 분석 정리하고, 최근 제기된 결함 허용 재구현과 기능적 재구현의 일체화 문제 즉 통합 재구현 문제의 이해에 핵심적인 결할 허용 재구현과 기능적 재구현 사이의 관계를 밝혔으며, 통합 재 구현에 적합한 결할 진단 및 검출 제어 방법과 구성제어 방법에 대하여 논하였다.

New direct and indirect current control methods for a fault-tolerant active power filter topology are presented in this paper. Since a three-phase four-switch topology has a phase bridge current which cannot be directly controlled, a hysteresis control method in the α-β plane which controls the three-phase current in the two-phase stationary coordinate system is proposed. The improved SVPWM algorithm is able to eliminate the operation of the trigonometric functions in the traditional algorithm by rotating the α-β coordinates and alternating the sequence of the output vectors, which in turn simplifies the algorithm and reduces the switching frequency. The selection of the DC-side reference voltage and DC-side capacitor equalization strategy are also discussed. Simulation and experiments demonstrate that the proposed control method is correct and feasible.

An observer-based fault tolerant control (FTC) method is proposed for constrained switched systems (CSS) with input constraints. A family of Lyapunov-based bounded controllers are designed to ensure that, whenever actuator faults occur at the dwell time period of each continuous mode, the mode is always within its corresponding stability region. A set of switching laws are designed to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the overall CSS. The fixed stability regions on which the FTC method is based are also relaxed by the proposed variable stability regions. An example of CPU processing illustrates the effectiveness of proposed method.
