This study presents the control system design for a specialized saturation diving decontamination decompression chamber. As a multi-compartment structure, the system requires precise inter-cabin pressure differentials to ensure safe decontamination and ventilation control under dynamic conditions, particularly in the presence of potential faults, such as valve offset, actuator malfunction, and chamber leakage. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel model-based planning and fault-tolerant control framework that enables adaptive responses and maintains resilient system performance. Specifically, we introduce a trajectory-planning algorithm guided by policy networks to improve planning efficiency and robustness under system uncertainty. Additionally, a meta-learning-based fault-tolerant control strategy is proposed to address system disturbances and faults. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves higher cumulative rewards, faster convergence, and improved robustness compared to conventional methods. This work provides an effective and adaptive control solution for human-occupied hyperbaric systems operating in safety-critical environments requiring fail-operational performance.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s25113534","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,4]],"date-time":"2025-06-04T06:00:49Z","timestamp":1749016849000},"page":"3534","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Meta-Reinforced-Model-Based Planning and Fault-Tolerant Control for a Saturation Diving Decontamination Decompression Chamber"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Nan","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering, Xi\u2019an Jiaotong University, Xi\u2019an 710049, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qijing","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering, Xi\u2019an Jiaotong University, Xi\u2019an 710049, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhuangde","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering, Xi\u2019an Jiaotong University, Xi\u2019an 710049, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"23","DOI":"10.28920\/dhm54.1.23-38","article-title":"Review of saturation decompression procedures used in commercial diving","volume":"54","author":"Imbert","year":"2024","journal-title":"Diving Hyperb.
