The fault detection problem for the nonlinear networked control system (NCS) with packet dropout and delay is investigated. A nonlinear stochastic system model is proposed to account for the NCS with random packet dropout and networkinduced non-uniformly distributed time-varying delay in both from s...

The paper presents the longitudinal control for the carrier-based unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system with unmeasured states, actuator faults, control input constraints, and external disturbances. By combining output state observer, adaptive fuzzy control, and constraint backstepping technology, a ...

More Electrical Aircraft (MEA) which replaces the hydraulic and pneumatic power by electrical power leads to reducing emissions and fuel consumption. The MEA concept has led to a growing use of the starter/generator (S/G) system. Permanent magnet (PM) machines have been gaining interests for aircraf...

Modifying the equivalent rotor resistivity with rotor end factor in 2-dimension (2-D) finite element analysis (FEA) is an effective way to analyze the 3-dimension (3-D) solid rotor problems. For the smooth solid rotor, five different rotor end factors are discussed and compared with each other. It i...

In this paper, three partitioned-stator (PS) machines, namely the PS flux-switching DC-field (PS-FSDC) machine, the PS-FS hybrid-excitation (PS-FSHE) machine, and the flux adjuster FS permanent-magnet (FA-FSPM) machine are proposed. With different flux-regulating mechanisms, all three proposed machi...
