Abstract Due to the convenience in applications, interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based control (IDA-PBC) is applied widely to reformulate the nonlinear robust control as the total energy shaping. However, only few researches focus on the fault-tolerant control (FTC) method based on IDA-PBC, which limits its applications under actuator faults. To break this limitation, this paper improves the IDA-PBC with fault-tolerant ability, and the main contributions are to propose highgain and adaptive IDA-PBC methods under loss of actuator effectiveness. The simulation and experiment results with a rotorcraft unmanned aerial vehicle (RUAV) are presented to illustrate the control effectiveness of the improved IDA-PBC methods. Keywords IDA-PBC · Loss of actuator effectiveness · Passive FTC · RUAV
1 Introduction Passivity-based control (PBC) is a powerful technique to design nonlinear and robust controllers for physical systems modelled by Euler-Lagrange (EL) equations [1]. Classical PBC stabilizes physical systems by “shaping” only potential energy, and assigns a dissipative closed-loop energy function equal to the difference between the original energy of controlled plant and the energy from designed controller [2]. To shape the total energy of controlled plant, [2] and [3] propose interconnection and damping assignment passivitybased control (IDA-PBC), which constructs the closed-loop energy function by desired subsystem interconnections and damping [3]. Superior to classical PBC, IDA-PBC relies on a more general system description — port-controlled Hamiltonian (PCH) model rather than the EL equation. Due to the convenience for nonlinear controller design and inherent robustness against unmodeled dynamics, IDA-PBC has been applied widely for the control of manipulator [4], rotorcraft unmanned aerial vehicle (RUAV) [5], RUAV slung load system [6], and electrical system [7].

To ensure stability or acceptable control performance of controlled plant under sensor faults or actuator faults, nonlinear passive and active fault-tolerant control (FTC) methods have been researched for a long time [8] based on sliding mode control [9–11], backstepping control [12– 15], and linear parameter-varying (LPV) control [16–18]. Reference [19] further carries out the comparative study between passive and active approaches to provide an objective assessment for them. However, according to the authors’ knowledge, only a few of researches focus on the fault-tolerance based on classical passivity or IDA-PBC. For example, [20] applies passivity theory to ensure the stability of nonlinear systems under loss of actuator effectiveness, and
