Fuzzy Fault-Tolerant Boundary Control for Nonlinear DPSs With Multiple Delays and Stochastic Actuator Failures

For nonlinear distributed parameter systems (DPSs) with multiple delays, this study considers a fuzzy fault-tolerant boundary control (BC) with stochastic actuator failures under boundary measurement. First, we exactly represent the nonlinear DPS with multiple delays by the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy delayed partial differential equation (PDE). Next, on basis of T-S fuzzy delayed PDE model, a fuzzy fault-tolerant BC design with stochastic actuator failures under boundary measurement guaranteeing the stochastically exponential stability for closedloop DPS with multiple delays is subsequently presented by linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Lastly, the effectiveness of the investigated fuzzy fault-tolerant BC strategy with stochastic actuator failures under boundary measurement is proposed via a simulation example.
