    Abstract: In a method for failure, detection, operational data from a plurality of components in a system are received. A bank of submodels is created based on the operational data. The bank of submodels corresponds to a normal mode and one or more faulty modes of the system and is valid in different operating regimes of the system. Each of the banks of submodels has a respective weight (validity) and a respective suboutput. An output of the system is a weighted sum of the suboutputs of the submodels. The operational data is therefore processed to generate a validity profile through a constrained Kalman Filter (KCF) based multimodel fault detection and diagnosis (FDD). Subsequently, the validity profile is output. The validity profile is indicative of an operation state of the system at a given time, and the operation state includes a normal state and a fault state.

    Abstract: Stiction analysis of a conventional or legacy valve operation in a fluid process plant is described. The method includes receiving a series of setpoint signals, SP, generating, by the controller, a series of controller output signals, OP, driving the valve operation by applying the OP, to the valve, measuring a series of process variable signals, PV, downstream of the valve, receiving the series of process variable signals at the controller, performing inverse modelling on the PV, to estimate a manipulated variable, , receiving and analyzing by a system processor, the SP, the OP, and the , and outputting the estimated stick values, S, the estimated jump values, J, an average of the estimated stick values, an average of the estimated jump values, a confidence interval for the average of the stick values, and a confidence interval for the average of the jump values.
