Download or read book Fault Diagnosis and Fault Tolerant Control and Guidance for Aerospace Vehicles written by Ali Zolghadri and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-07 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

This book was released on 2011-03-15 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few decades, both the aeronautics and space disciplines have greatly influenced advances in controls, sensors, data fusion and navigation. Many of those achievements that made the word “aerospace” synonymous with “high–tech” were enabled by innovations in guidance, navigation and control. Europe has seen a strong trans-national consolidation process in aerospace over the last few decades. Most of the visible products, like commercial aircraft, fighters, helicopters, satellites, launchers or missiles, are not made by a single country – they are the fruits of cooperation. No European country by itself hosts a specialized guidance, navigation and controls community large enough to cover the whole spectrum of disciplines. However, on a European scale, mutual exchange of ideas, concepts and solutions is enriching for all. The 1st CEAS Specialist Conference on Guidance, Navigation and Control is an attempt to bring this community together. This book is a selection of papers presented at the conference. All submitted papers have gone through a formal review process in compliance with good journal practices. The best papers have been recommended by the reviewers to be published in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the lecture series is to show the application of 'modern control theory' to the generation of guidance laws for astronautical as well as atmospheric aerospace vehicles. Time domain analysis is stressed throughout, although frequency domain considerations are used when discussing instrumentation response characteristics. Particular emphasis is placed on the use of digital computers in solving these highly nonlinear problems and techniques are demonstrated for implementing and mechanizing these solutions to airborne and astronautical vehicles. The purpose of the first and second chapters is to review the language of modern control theory as it applies to linear systems. The concepts of input-output, state space representations and matrix analysis are coupled to a discussion of solutions of state space equations and the calculation of state transition matrices for linear systems. Chapters three and four introduce optimization theory and provide various formulations and algorithms to generate optimal controllers for so-called fixed time TPBV problems. The fifth chapter describes discrete estimation or Kalman filtering theory. Chapter six discusses space kinematic relationships describing motion in both inertial and moving coordinate frames. The seventh chapter develops trajectory theory and perturbation analysis as applied to astronautical vehicles. Finally, chapter eight describes the typical guidance and control philosophy used in aerodynamic as well as astronautical vehicles. (Author).

This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the design of optimal trajectories for space maneuver vehicles (SMVs) using optimal control-based techniques. It begins with a comprehensive introduction to and overview of three main approaches to trajectory optimization, and subsequently focuses on the design of a novel hybrid optimization strategy that combines an initial guess generator with an improved gradient-based inner optimizer. Further, it highlights the development of multi-objective spacecraft trajectory optimization problems, with a particular focus on multi-objective transcription methods and multi-objective evolutionary algorithms. In its final sections, the book studies spacecraft flight scenarios with noise-perturbed dynamics and probabilistic constraints, and designs and validates new chance-constrained optimal control frameworks. The comprehensive and systematic treatment of practical issues in spacecraft trajectory optimization is one of the book’s major features, making it particularly suited for readers who are seeking practical solutions in spacecraft trajectory optimization. It offers a valuable asset for researchers, engineers, and graduate students in GNC systems, engineering optimization, applied optimal control theory, etc.
