This paper is to proposes a fractional order adaptive control scheme design for actuator failure compensation in order to balance of a ball-beam system with redundant actuators. The proposed controller is based on a fractional order sliding surface from which an adaptive actuator failure compensation control scheme is obtained. In order to control the dual ball-beam system with redundant motors, a linearized model is derived, which is subjected to actuator failures. A set of numerical simulation tests representing few selected types of actuator failures scenarios are carried out to assess the output tracking performance of the proposed controller design when dealing with such failures
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
