FAULT DETECTION OF NON-LINEAR SYSTEMS BASED ON MULTI-FORM QUASI-ARMAX MODELING AND ITS APPLICATION TO THE SHIP BENCHMARK

摘要

This paper is concerned with an application study of model-based fault detection method to a ship propulsion system. When modeling the object system, Quasi-ARMAX model with multi-model form is used. In this model, the system non-linearity is incorporated into model parameters by using non-linear non-parametric models (NNMs). Kullback discrimination Information (KDI) is introduced as fault detection index to evaluate the distortion in identified model, which is caused by a fault. The effectiveness of the method is verified through simulation studies on the ship propulsion system.
