Abstract

Flight control systems are an essential part of aircraft, consisting of all elements between the pilot and the movable parts, such as actuators, controllers, and sensors, to control the aircraft's attitude, trajectory and speed. In this context, oscillatory failure cases are problems that can occur in any part of the flight control system, causing undesired oscillatory behavior that affects the aircraft's structural load. On the one hand, correctly detecting such failures enables weight saving to improve aircraft performance in different aspects; on the other hand, such detection enables reconfiguring the control law to keep the aircraft in its path. This work describes a data-driven oscillatory fault detection model and the control law reconfiguration for a fight control system for the Aerospace Industrial Benchmark. Preliminary results indicate that the developed system can accurately detect faults in several scenarios and properly reconfigure the control loop.
