An Integrated Fault Detection and Isolation and Safe-Parking Framework for Networked Process Systems

This work considers the problem of fault detection and isolation (FDI) and fault-handling for networked process systems subject to actuator faults. Multiple units are interconnected in the context of a networked plant. It is assumed that the failed actuator reverts to its fail-safe position and precludes the possibility of nominal operation in the affected unit. First, a robust FDI design is presented, where relations between the prescribed …
