X International Summer School on Fault Diagnosis of Complex Systems

Organized by the Spanish Thematic Network on
Supervision and Diagnosis of Complex Systems

Presentation

The  International  Summer School on Fault Diagnosis of Complex Systems is a biennial event promoted by the Spanish Network on Supervision and Diagnosis of Complex Systems that aims to promote the research on this challenging field and provoke the interaction among research groups and practitioners in Spain and abroad. The school is organized as an intensive one-week course.

Attendance

Expected attendants are PhD and master students interested in fault detection, diagnosis and prognostics topics, and practitioners involved in monitoring and supervision projects. 

When

The 10th edition of this successful and already established event will take place between the 1st and 5th of July 2024 in the University of Valladolid, Spain.

Where

The teaching will take place at the Escuela de Ingeniería Informática building, in the Miguel Delibes Campus. Valladolid. Spain

Program

T1. INTRODUCTION. FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS

T1.1 Definitions: fault, failure, detection, diagnosis, reliability…

T1.2 Foundations for fault detection and diagnosis in FDI and DX: detectability, observability,  diagnosability

T2. THE FDI APPROACH

T2.1. Structural analysis and analytical redundancy.

T2.2. Model-based detection methods: parameter estimation, parity equations, state observers for linear and non-linear models.

T2.3. Fault detection: residual evaluation by consistency tests, and envelope generators.

T2.4. Fault isolation: structured and directional residuals.

T3. THE DX APPROACH 

T3.1 Model-based diagnosis from AI Community. Consistency-based diagnosis, CBD: Theoretical (Reiter’s ) approach.

T3.2 GDE: the computational approach to CBD.

T3.3 Computational alternatives to GDE. Diagnosing multiple faults.

T3.4 Constraint-driven fault diagnosis.

T4. BRIDGE: INTEGRATION OF FDI AND DX APPROACHES

T4.1 Theoretical links and comparison.

T4.2 Practical comparison and potential synergies.
