We consider an asymmetric conditions case, when only one turbine is affected by an inter-turn short circuit fault of a permanent magnet synchronous machine. A diagnosis design is developed which combines the fault estimation method together with an active fault-tolerant control. The main advantage of the proposed method is to detect and correct the considered fault in a short time in order that the twin wind turbine behaves as it does in the healthy case.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/info13030113","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,25]],"date-time":"2022-02-25T10:00:40Z","timestamp":1645783240000},"page":"113","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Observer-Based Active Fault-Tolerant Control of an Asymmetric Twin Wind Turbine"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2830-2791","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mariem","family":"Makni","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mechanics, Modelling and Manufacturing (LA2MP), National Engineering School of Sfax, Sfax 3038, Tunisia"},{"name":"Quartz Laboratory, EA-7393, ENSEA, 95014 Cergy-Pontoise, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ihab","family":"Haidar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Quartz Laboratory, EA-7393, ENSEA, 95014 Cergy-Pontoise, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean-Pierre","family":"Barbot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Quartz Laboratory, EA-7393, ENSEA, 95014 Cergy-Pontoise, France"},{"name":"LS2N, UMR CNRS 6004, ECN, 44300 Nantes, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Franck","family":"Plestan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"LS2N, UMR CNRS 6004, ECN, 44300 Nantes, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nabih","family":"Feki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mechanics, Modelling and Manufacturing (LA2MP), National Engineering School of Sfax, Sfax 3038, Tunisia"},{"name":"Higher Institute of Applied Science and Technology of Sousse, Sousse University, Sousse 4003, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed Slim","family":"Abbes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Mechanics, Modelling and Manufacturing (LA2MP), National Engineering School of Sfax, Sfax 3038, Tunisia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Herskovits, A., Laffitte, O., Thome, P., and Tobie, A.
