Robust Observer-Based Fault Diagnosis for Nonlinear Systems Using MATLAB®

• the sliding-mode observer

• the adaptive observer

• the unknown-input observer and

• the descriptor observer method

for the problem of fault detection, isolation and estimation, allowing readers to compare and contrast the different approaches. The authors present basic material on Lyapunov stability theory, H¥ control theory, sliding-mode control theory and linear matrix inequality problems in a self-contained and s...
