This paper presents a novel control method for accommodating actuator faults in a class of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear uncertain systems.The designed control scheme can tolerate both the time-varying lock-in-place and loss of effectiveness actuator faults.In each subsystem of the considered MIMO system,the controller is obtained from a backstepping procedure;an adaptive fuzzy approximator with minimal learning parameterization is employed to approximate the package of unknown nonlinear f...
