Summary on Grant Application Form
Fault diagnosis based on analytical and heuristic approaches has attracted the interest of researchers. Normally speaking the former approach is accurate but not robust whilst the latter is robust but not accurate. The complementary characteristics of both approaches will be explored, knowledge from both dynamic and physical structures of the system will be utilised for the fault diagnosis; emphasis will be placed in the study on integrating these two approaches. New hierarchical structures for the integration will be defined, and appropriate fault diagnosis methods from both approaches will be developed integrally to fit well into the integration structure, whilst maximising the advantages and minimising the disadvantages of both methods. Redundant information from different sources will be fused together enhancing the robustness of fault diagnosis.
