1 Innovation in FDIR for aircraft and flight-critical systems Ali Zolghadri Bordeaux University / CNRS IMS lab France MEA 2017, 1-2 February, Bordeaux, France What is FDIR ? 3 SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY J.L. Chrétien Astronaute NASA / ESA FDIR 09/02/2017 5 Fault Detection & Diagnosis (FDD): Detect, Isolate and Estimate the severity of a fault Fault Tolerant Guidance (FTG): if the available on-board control resources are limited, FTC would not be sufficient >> change the objectives Reconfiguration Level 2: reshaping outer guidance loops Fault Tolerant Control (FTC): continue to “control” the faulty system: provide, at worst, a degraded level of performance in the faulty situations Reconfiguration Level 1: reshaping inner piloting loops Recovery FDIR FDD&FTC/ FTG Consolidated flight data SENSORS: Flight parameters Air Data Inertial Reference System ACTUATORS: Propulsion system Engines / Control surfaces Computed control signals GUIDANCE: Where am I going ? Required changes in velocity Required attitude … CONTROL: How do I get there ? Estimated states NAVIGATION: Where am I ? Fault Monitoring and Management 7 The theory offers a huge number of various designs, techniques and methods related to model-based FDIR. Moreover, many successful “demonstrations” exist… Aircraft and flight-critical applications provide numerous grounds where unconventional, smart and innovating FDIR is needed… However, today, few real model-based applications* can be identified… *Transfer of knowledge resulting in tangible and marketable aerospace technologies which can generate economic added value and benefits to society. Conventional versus advanced model-based FDIR 09/02/2017 8 Question (President): My question is simple: How did we go so wrong ? Answer (AG): I discovered a flaw in the model that I perceived is the critical functioning structure that defines how the world works … we went wrong because models, as we currently employ them, are not able to capture the full array of governing variables in extreme situations that drive global economic reality… Every model-based design/development for flight-critical systems should, of course, provide good “average” performance … It is necessary, but it is not sufficient at all ! The sizing element is the achievable performance, robustness and reliability in extreme, unusual and non-standard flight situations. It is all about model and model-based design / model-driven development Real world is not deterministic: An aircraft is a cyber-physical system combining physical dynamics with computational processes: multiple behavioral modalities interacting with each other that can change with context … In Engineering science, we love deterministic models as they can lead to deterministic model-based systems for monitoring, fault tolerance, reconfiguration, prediction… The issue is how to reconcile Deterministic Models with a Nondeterministic World 09/02/2017 11 A successful example: Model-based monitoring system for Airbus A350 09/02/2017 12 Aircraft control surfaces Two adjacent dissimilar actuators for moving a single control surface on the A380 On the left: an EHA, and on the right a conventional hydraulic actuator.
