• A Framework for Diagnosis of Critical Faults in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles 

      Hansen, Søren; Blanke, Mogens; Adrian, Jens (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) need a large degree of tolerance towards faults. If not diagnosed and handled in time, many types of faults can have catastrophic consequences if they occur during flight. Prognosis of faults ...
    • Control surface fault diagnosis with specified detection probability — Real event experiences 

      Hansen, Søren; Blanke, Mogens (2013 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS);, Chapter, 2013)
      Diagnosis of actuator faults is crucial for aircraft since loss of actuation can have catastrophic consequences. For autonomous aircraft the steps necessary to achieve fault tolerance is limited when only basic and ...
    • Diagnosis of Airspeed Measurement Faults for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles 

      Hansen, Søren; Blanke, Mogens (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Airspeed sensor faults are common causes for incidents with unmanned aerial vehicles with pitot tube clogging or icing being the most common causes. Timely diagnosis of such faults or other artifacts in signals from airspeed ...
    • Performance Comparison of Controllers with Fault-Dependent Control Allocation for UAVs 

      Sørensen, Mikkel Eske Nørgaard; Hansen, Søren; Breivik, Morten; Blanke, Mogens (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      This paper combines fault-dependent control allocation with three different control schemes to obtain fault tolerance in the longitudinal control of unmanned aerial vehicles. The paper shows that fault-dependent control ...
