  • Fault detection scheme using the agents paradigm
    Publication . Mendes, Mário J. G. C.; Calado, João Manuel Ferreira; Costa, J. M. G. Sá da
    An agent based fault detection (FD) system for complexa nd dynamic processes is proposed in this work. The system is based in the agent paradigm where the modularity and complexity of the processes are important aspects in the FD system constructed. In the future, the FD agents must be able to cooperate and communicate with other systems to achieve a satisfactory performance, as a part of a fault tolerant control multi-agent system. The FD agents proposed here have hybrid architectures based in a horizontal layered architecture. Two types of FD agents are proposed, one based in decomposition wavelet methods with limit checking and other based in neural networks ARX models for residual generation. The agent based FD scheme proposed is applied in a three tank process.
  • Fault diagnosis system based in agents
    Publication . Mendes, Mário J. G. C.; Calado, João Manuel Ferreira; Costa, J. M. G Sá da
    In this work is proposed a new agent based fault diagnosis system for complex and dynamic processes. The fault diagnosis systems of the future should have present the distribution and complexity of the processes and they must be able to cooperate and communicate with other systems to achieved a satisfactory performance. The fault detection and isolation (FDI) agents proposed here have hybrid architectures based in a horizontal layered architecture. The reactive layer of the FDI agents are based in decomposition wavelet methods for the fault detection and in neural networks for the fault isolation task. The new agent based FDI system is applied to fault diagnosis in a three tank process.
