The Hierarchical Decentralized Fault Tolerate Control for Building Structure Experiment Research

With the development of technology, the more sensor and actuator are used on the building structure control, the more fault probability will become. This study introduces hierarchical decentralized fault tolerate controller design methods, which are constructed for sensor and actuator failures, based on Lyapunov approach. And it constructs cantilever active control experiments by Matlab/xPC control method. According to the results of experiments, the system of hierarchical decentralized fault tolerate control has a good control effect and damping performance.
