Aim of the Workshop: This workshop aims to give an overview of the recent research activity in the area of Active Fault Tolerant Control. Some applications will be illustrated and especially in Fuel Cell Systems, Wind Energy Conversion Systems, Intelligent Autonomous Vehicle, Steam Generator, Fermentation Systems, etc… Workshop audience: The workshop is addressed to Graduate students and young researchers with a background in all areas of engineering and applied sciences, and engineers working on automatic control and interested in fault tolerant control of complex systems. Workshop participants will receive a set of detailed notes, copies of the presentation slides, and a set of relevant papers in this area. Abstract: Fault Tolerant Control aims at making the system stable and retain acceptable performance under the system faults. With AFTC systems controlled complexes systems are achievable even with the presence of faults, however, it is necessary to modify the commands to the actuators and reconfigure the control law. FTC approaches can be classified into two grups: the first one is based on fault detection and isolation (active approach) and the second one is independent of fault diagnosis (passive approach). The first one uses the on-line fault detection and isolation to monitor the system and when any fault occurs the control laws are redesigned to guaranty that the faulty systems maintain the performance. The second one is to design fixed controllers without consideration of whether the fault has occurred or not. It is obvious that to design fixed controllers that are robust to failures are very difficult and only time-invariant linear systems have been considered. Here our emphasis is on the first group and the main methods of fault diagnosis and controller reconfiguration techniques for complexes systems are overviewed. In this workshop, the first part of this workshop concerns the model-based FDI techniques, and the second part is devoted to the active fault tolerant control and finally the third part deals with some examples and exercises of FDI and AFTC systems as renewable energy systems, internal combustion system, fuel cell system, autonomous vehicle, etc…
