The HS considered in this book consists of a series of continuous modes and a switching logic. Switching from one mode to another is due to a switching law generated from the switching logic. Faulty behaviors of HS are investigated s- tematically.Two main kindsof faults are considered:Continuous faults that affect continuous modes; Discrete faults that affect the desired switching.

Review

From the reviews:

“Fault detection and fault tolerant control techniques have received wide attention in the field of continuous-time, especially linear, systems. ... Hence the monograph in question is a very suitable addition to this field. ... There is a list of references, with 157 entries, which is a very good compendium of the literature in the field. On the whole, this monograph is a good addition to the industry-relevant research in the field of fault detection and fault tolerant control.” (Amit Patra, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 e)
