Flight-control problems with residual control authority.

The aerospace track starts from unmanned and flight-control cases where the damaged plant cannot be repaired in mission, but a reduced set of actuators, sensors, power or communication resources may still support a bounded objective.

FailureResidual questionResearch target
partial actuationis the damaged vehicle still controllable?reduced plant model + control reformulation
sensor losswhat navigation/control state remains observable?health estimation + degraded state estimation
power degradationwhich functions remain mission-feasible?resource/function prioritisation
communication degradationwhat autonomy must remain local?configuration / service reallocation
