Stochastic DES Fault Diagnosis with Coloured Interpreted Petri Nets

[EN] This proposal presents an online method to detect and isolate faults in stochastic discrete event systems without previous model. A coloured timed interpreted Petri Net generates the normal behavior language after an identification stage.The next step is fault detection that is carried out by comparing the observed event sequences with the expected event sequences. Once a new fault is detected, a learning algorithm changes the structure of the diagnoser, so it is able to learn new fault languages. Moreover, the diagnoser includes timed events to represent and diagnose stochastic languages. Finally, this paper proposes a detectability condition for stochastic DES and the sufficient and necessary conditions are proved.This work was supported by a grant from the Universidad del Cauca, Reference 2.3-31.2/05 2011.Muñoz-Añasco, DM.; Correcher Salvador, A.; García Moreno, E.; Morant Anglada, FJ.

Integration of a failure monitoring within a hybrid dynamic simulation environment

The complexity and the size of the industrial chemical processes induce the monitoring of a growing number of process variables. Their knowledge is generally based on the measurements of system variables and on the physico-chemical models of the process. Nevertheless this information is imprecise because of process and measurement noise. So the research ways aim at developing new and more powerful techniques for the detection of process fault. In this work, we present a method for the fault detection based on the comparison between the real system and the reference model evolution generated by the extended Kalman filter. The reference model is simulated by the dynamic hybrid simulator, PrODHyS. It is a general object-oriented environment which provides common and reusable components designed for the development and the management of dynamic simulation of industrial systems. The use of this method is illustrated through a didactic example relating to the field of Chemical Process System Engineering

This deliverable deals with the modelling and analysis of interdependencies between critical infrastructures, focussing attention on two interdependent infrastructures studied in the context of CRUTIAL: the electric power infrastructure and the information infrastructures supporting management, control and maintenance functionality. The main objectives are: 1) investigate the main challenges to be addressed for the analysis and modelling of interdependencies, 2) review the modelling methodologies and tools that can be used to address these challenges and support the evaluation of the impact of interdependencies on the dependability and resilience of the service delivered to the users, and 3) present the preliminary directions investigated so far by the CRUTIAL consortium for describing and modelling interdependencies

Efficient Detection on Stochastic Faults in PLC Based Automated Assembly Systems With Novel Sensor Deployment and Diagnoser Design

In this dissertation, we proposed solutions on novel sensor deployment and diagnoser design to efficiently detect stochastic faults in PLC based automated systems First, a fuzzy quantitative graph based sensor deployment was called upon to model cause-effect relationship between faults and sensors. Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to aggregate the heterogeneous properties between sensors and faults into single edge values in fuzzy graph, thus quantitatively determining the fault detectability. An appropriate multiple objective model was set up to minimize fault unobservability and cost while achieving required detectability performance. Lexicographical mixed integer linear programming and greedy search were respectively used to optimize the model, thus assigning the sensors to faults. Second, a diagnoser based on real time fuzzy Petri net (RTFPN) was proposed to detect faults in discrete manufacturing systems. It used the real time PN to model the manufacturing plant while using fuzzy PN to isolate the faults. It has the capability of handling uncertainties and including industry knowledge to diagnose faults. The proposed approach was implemented using Visual Basic, and tested as well as validated on a dual robot arm. Finally, the proposed sensor deployment approach and diagnoser were comprehensively evaluated based on design of experiment techniques. Two-stage statistical analysis including analysis of variance (ANOVA) and least significance difference (LSD) were conducted to evaluate the diagnosis performance including positive detection rate, false alarm, accuracy and detect delay. It illustrated the proposed approaches have better performance on those evaluation metrics. The major contributions of this research include the following aspects: (1) a novel fuzzy quantitative graph based sensor deployment approach handling sensor heterogeneity, and optimizing multiple objectives based on lexicographical integer linear programming and greedy algorithm, respectively. A case study on a five tank system showed that system detectability was improved from the approach of signed directed graph's 0.62 to the proposed approach's 0.70. The other case study on a dual robot arm also show improvement on system's detectability improved from the approach of signed directed graph's 0.61 to the proposed approach's 0.65. (2) A novel real time fuzzy Petri net diagnoser was used to remedy nonsynchronization and integrate useful but incomplete knowledge for diagnosis purpose. The third case study on a dual robot arm shows that the diagnoser can achieve a high detection accuracy of 93% and maximum detection delay of eight steps. (3) The comprehensive evaluation approach can be referenced by other diagnosis systems' design, optimization and evaluation

Perfomance Analysis and Resource Optimisation of Critical Systems Modelled by Petri Nets

Un sistema crítico debe cumplir con su misión a pesar de la presencia de problemas de seguridad. Este tipo de sistemas se suele desplegar en entornos heterogéneos, donde pueden ser objeto de intentos de intrusión, robo de información confidencial u otro tipo de ataques. Los sistemas, en general, tienen que ser rediseñados después de que ocurra un incidente de seguridad, lo que puede conducir a consecuencias graves, como el enorme costo de reimplementar o reprogramar todo el sistema, así como las posibles pérdidas económicas. Así, la seguridad ha de ser concebida como una parte integral del desarrollo de sistemas y como una necesidad singular de lo que el sistema debe realizar (es decir, un requisito no funcional del sistema). Así pues, al diseñar sistemas críticos es fundamental estudiar los ataques que se pueden producir y planificar cómo reaccionar frente a ellos, con el fin de mantener el cumplimiento de requerimientos funcionales y no funcionales del sistema. A pesar de que los problemas de seguridad se consideren, también es necesario tener en cuenta los costes incurridos para garantizar un determinado nivel de seguridad en sistemas críticos. De hecho, los costes de seguridad puede ser un factor muy relevante ya que puede abarcar diferentes dimensiones, como el presupuesto, el rendimiento y la fiabilidad. Muchos de estos sistemas críticos que incorporan técnicas de tolerancia a fallos (sistemas FT) para hacer frente a las cuestiones de seguridad son sistemas complejos, que utilizan recursos que pueden estar comprometidos (es decir, pueden fallar) por la activación de los fallos y/o errores provocados por posibles ataques. Estos sistemas pueden ser modelados como sistemas de eventos discretos donde los recursos son compartidos, también llamados sistemas de asignación de recursos. Esta tesis se centra en los sistemas FT con recursos compartidos modelados mediante redes de Petri (Petri nets, PN). Estos sistemas son generalmente tan grandes que el cálculo exacto de su rendimiento se convierte en una tarea de cálculo muy compleja, debido al problema de la explosión del espacio de estados. Como resultado de ello, una tarea que requiere una exploración exhaustiva en el espacio de estados es incomputable (en un plazo prudencial) para sistemas grandes. Las principales aportaciones de esta tesis son tres. Primero, se ofrecen diferentes modelos, usando el Lenguaje Unificado de Modelado (Unified Modelling Language, UML) y las redes de Petri, que ayudan a incorporar las cuestiones de seguridad y tolerancia a fallos en primer plano durante la fase de diseño de los sistemas, permitiendo así, por ejemplo, el análisis del compromiso entre seguridad y rendimiento. En segundo lugar, se proporcionan varios algoritmos para calcular el rendimiento (también bajo condiciones de fallo) mediante el cálculo de cotas de rendimiento superiores, evitando así el problema de la explosión del espacio de estados. Por último, se proporcionan algoritmos para calcular cómo compensar la degradación de rendimiento que se produce ante una situación inesperada en un sistema con tolerancia a fallos

Diagnostic Based on Estimation Using Linear Programming for Partially Observable Petri Nets with Indistinguishable Events

In this paper, we design a diagnostic technique for a partially observed labelled Petri net where the faults of the system are modelled by unobservable transitions. The fault detection and isolation uses an on-line count vector estimation associated with the firing of unobservable transitions exploiting the observation of firing occurrences of some observable transitions. The support of the approach is an algebraic description of the process under the form of a polyhedron developed on a receding horizon. We show that a diagnostic can be made despite that different transitions can share the same label and that the unobservable part of the Petri net can contain circuits
