Robust fault diagnosis of an electro-hydrostatic actuator using the novel dynamic second-order SVSF and IMM strategy

This paper introduces a new robust fault detection and identification (FDI) structure applied to an electro-hydrostatic actuator (EHA) experimental setup. This FDI structure consists of the dynamic second-order smooth variable structure filter (Dynamic second-SVSF) and the interacting multiple model (IMM) strategy. The dynamic second-order smooth variable structure filter (SVSF) is a new robust-state estimation method that benefits from the …
