R. Hamdaoui, M.N. Abdelkrim . Fault Tolerant Systems viewed as Switching Hybrid Systems. International Journal of Computer Applications. 38, 6 ( January 2012), 1-6. DOI=10.5120/4689-6821
This paper presents fault tolerant control systems FTC in a hybrid system framework. Due to the discrete nature of fault occurrence and reconfiguration, FTC systems are considered hybrid in nature. Thus, in this work, actuator fault recoverability is studied by utilizing a controllability concept of hybrid systems. The hybrid formalism allows the recoverability’s analysis based on the controllability concept of hybrid systems. Fault recovery is also studied based on control energy limitation in order to determinate admissible recovery solutions.
