Abstract

This letter proposes a set-theoretic Failure Mode and Effect Management (FMEM) strategy that handles stuck/jammed actuators and enforces pointwise-in-time state and control constraints. The approach exploits nesting between constraint admissible and recoverable sets to ensure the existence of a recovery sequence. A reference governor is applied to track reference commands while imposing constraint satisfaction using the remaining working actuators. Numerical results of an aircraft longitudinal flight application are reported.
