Abstract

A system for detecting and locating failures that occur in a complex system includes elements (CAP, MODVAL, MODDP, MODFD) for detecting and locating a failure affecting at least one sub-system of the complex system. The system also includes an element (MODPD) for making a decision on any action to be taken in the event of such detection. A rocket engine can be monitored with this system.
