time fault (plural time faults)

  1. (equestrianism) A penalty given in which a rider does not complete the course in the time allowed that is set by the course designer.
    • 2001, Laura Moore, Ride a Dark Horse, page 286:
      For instance, a refusal was three points, but as it generally took the rider precious seconds to get his horse over the refused fence, a time fault of four points could be expected.
    • 2010, Bradley Berner, Blood on the Irons:
      If the rider is over the time allowed he or she is penalized 1⁄4 time fault for every second over the limit.
    • 2021, James Patterson, The Horsewoman:
      If I went over by a tenth of a second, I got a time fault and some other horse would be the last qualifier for the Grand Prix.
  2. (sciences, engineering) A fault in the timing of an automated system.
    • 2007, Hong-Yue Zhang, Fault Detection, Supervision and Safety of Technical Processes, page 628:
      Finally, the bottom window of the figure displays the time fault estimation results.
    • 2013, Magdi S. Mahmoud, Yuanqing Xia, Analysis and Synthesis of Fault-Tolerant Control Systems, page ix:
      There are significant numbers of works addressing discrete time fault detection problems using Kalman filter techniques [40, 41, 42]. Similar to the multi-objective design problem of continuous time fault detection, robustness in discrete time fault detection is also a very important issue but difficult to handle.
    • 2015, Stefan Schneider, Automatic Modeling and Fault Diagnosis of Timed Concurrent Discrete Event Systems:
      In closed-loop DES, timed fault isolation is the determination of time fault symptoms based on observed and modeled timed system outputs. The time fault symptoms refer to time behavior of I/Os that is inconsistent with the modeled one.
