Faults in Hybrid Systems: Motor Example
Fault hypotheses
(discrete faults) x (continuous faults) x (autonomous transition faults)
Motor off
Steady state
Ramp up
Ramp down
Motor does not energize
Motor on
Motor off
Motor fault
y=motor speed
Kpi=nominal acceleration
Kh=steady state speed
Kpo
Kpi
Kh
Y
Time
•Modeling abrupt failure and gradual degradation
•Enable automatic generation of fault symptom table, which is in turn automatically compiled into a decision tree diagnoser.
