Abstract: Flight in all weather conditions has necessitated correctly detecting icing and taking reasonable measures against it. This work aims at the detection and identification of airframe icing based on statistical properties ...

Abstract: The purpose of the paper is to present an approach to detect, isolate, and accommodate the aircraft sensor and actuator faults using unknown input observers (UIOs). Full-order observers, reduced-order observers, and UIOs ...
