A Robust Model-Based Strategy for Real-Time Fault Detection and Diagnosis in an Electro-Hydraulic Actuator Using Updated Interactive Multiple Model Smooth Variable Structure Filter
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract In industries where harsh environments and stringent safety requirements are prevalent, the widespread use of applications has made it essential to focus on fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) in hydraulic actuators. To achieve this, model-based FDD techniques are utilized, which employ estimation tools like observers and filters. However, for many applications, particularly in fluid power systems, observability, and parameter uncertainty pose constraints to extracting information and estimating parameters. To address these issues, an efficient form of interactive multiple model (IMM), called updated IMM (UIMM), is applied to an electro-hydraulic actuator (EHA) to detect and isolate persisting friction and leakage faults. UIMM method progresses through a series of models that correspond to the fault condition's progression instead of considering all models at once (as is done in IMM). This reduces the number of models running simultaneously, providing two significant benefits: enhanced computational efficiency and avoidance of the combinatorial explosion. The smooth variable structure filter with variable boundary layer (SVSF-VBL) is used for state and parameter estimation in conjunction with UIMM. SVSF-VBL is a reliable suboptimal estimation method that performs better than the Kalman filter regarding uncertainties related to the system and modeling. The performance of the UIMM method is validated by the simulation of fault conditions for a typical EHA. A fault tolerable control system (FTCS) has been designed to demonstrate the use of the proposed FDD strategy for fault management in a closed-loop system.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
