Based on the event-triggered theory, the adaptive backstepping technique, and Lyapunov theory, a novel fault-tolerant control strategy is presented. It is shown that an appropriate comprise between the control performance and the sensor data real-time transmission consumption is made, and the fault-tolerant tracking control problem of the strict feedback nonlinear system with uncertain and unknown control direction is solved. The adaptive backstepping method is introduced to compensate the actuator faults. Moreover, a new adjustable event-triggered rule is designed to determine the sampling state instants. The overall control strategy guarantees that the output signal tracks the reference signal, and all the signals of the closed-loop systems are convergent. Finally, the fan speed control system is constructed to demonstrate the validity of the proposed strategy and the application of the general systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e22060598","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,28]],"date-time":"2020-05-28T08:27:48Z","timestamp":1590654468000},"page":"598","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Event-Triggered Adaptive Fault Tolerant Control for a Class of Uncertain Nonlinear Systems"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0051-1279","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chenglong","family":"Zhu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Measurement and Control of CSE Ministry of Education, School of Automation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]},{"given":"Chenxi","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Measurement and Control of CSE Ministry of Education, School of Automation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]},{"given":"Xinyi","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Measurement and Control of CSE Ministry of Education, School of Automation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]},{"given":"Kanjian","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Measurement and Control of CSE Ministry of Education, School of Automation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Xin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Measurement and Control of CSE Ministry of Education, School of Automation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"},{"name":"Faculty of Computer Science and Systems Engineering, Okayama Prefectural University, 111 Kuboki, Soja, Okayama 719-1197, Japan"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6667-3166","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Haikun","family":"Wei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Measurement and Control of CSE Ministry of Education, School of Automation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Gertler, J.
