APLICAÇÕES DE CONTROLE E ATENUAÇÃO DE FALHAS NO MÓDULO HELICÓPTERO 3D DA QUANSER

Abstract

The main objective of the project was theexploration of the control technique called VariableStructure Control with Sliding Mode (VSC-SM) for faultaccommodation in the propulsion system of an aircraft. Forthat, it was used a mathematical model of a flight Simulatorof a Quanser’s helicopter, named as 3-DOF Helicopter,which is an excellent module for teaching and developmentof control techniques. The results obtained in digitalsimulations presented an excellent performance of thesystem in fault when controlled by VSC-SM.
