Abstract :
Complex control applications require a capability for accommodating faults in the controlled plant. Fault accommodation involves the detection and isolation of faults, and taking an appropriate control action that mitigates the effect of the faults and maintains control. This requires the integration of fault diagnostics with control, in a feedback loop. The paper discusses how a generic framework for building fault-adaptive control systems can be created using a model based approach. Instances of the framework are examples of complex CBSs (computer based systems) that have novel capabilities.
