Abstract

This paper presents a fault-tolerant aircraft control (FTAC) scheme against actuator faults. Firstly, the upper bounds of the norms of the unknown functions are introduced, which contain actuator faults and model uncertainties. Subsequently, self-constructing fuzzy neural networks (SCFNNs) with adaptive laws are capable of obtaining the bounds. The bound estimation can reduce the computational burden with a lower amount of rules and weights, rather than the dynamic matrix approximation. Moreover, with the aid of SCFNNs, a multivariable sliding mode control (SMC) is developed to guarantee the finite-time stability of the handicapped aircraft. As compared to the existing intelligent FTAC techniques, the proposed method has twofold merits: fault accommodation can be promptly accomplished and decoupled difficulties can be overcome. Finally, simulation results from the nonlinear longitudinal Boeing 747 aircraft model illustrate the capability of the presented FTAC scheme.
