This paper presents a robust actuator fault estimation strategy design for a 3-DOF helicopter prototype which can be adapted to aggressive maneuvers. First, considering large pitch angle condition during flight, nonlinear coupling characteristic of t...

This paper proposes a novel distributed fault-tolerant consensus tracking control design for multi-agent systems with abrupt and incipient actuator faults under fixed and switching topologies. The fault and state information of each individual agent... Read More about Distributed Fault-Tolerant Consensus Tracking Control of Multi-Agent Systems under Fixed and Switching Topologies.
