The internal leakage fault-tolerant control problem of the electro-hydraulic servo actuator under the influence of multiple unmodeled dynamics is investigated in this paper, and an adaptive fault-tolerant control scheme based on unmodeled dynamics estimation and compensation is proposed. The model of the actuator is divided into two subsystems, which extended-state observers are respectively constructed to estimate the matched and mismatched unmodeled dynamics. Combined with the estimation results of the unmodeled dynamics, an adaptive fault-tolerant controller is designed by using the backstepping method. In which a controller reconfiguration mechanism based on internal leakage fault parameter online adaptation is used to accommodate the fault, and a feedforward compensation strategy is used to suppress the influence of unmodeled dynamics. Semi-physical simulation test of the proposed scheme is conducted under serious cylinder internal leakage. The test result shows that when the maximum internal leakage flow reaches 10.53 L/min, accounting for about 56.77% of the load flow, at the moment the opening of the servovalve is close to the maximum and the proposed scheme can still achieve high-precision position tracking control, where the maximum position tracking errors of fault transient and post-fault steady state are both limited within ±1.5% of the given position.
