A novel dynamic terminal sliding mode control of uncertain nonlinear systems

A new dynamic terminal sliding mode control (DTSMC) technique is proposed for a class of single-input and single-output (SISO) uncertain nonlinear systems. The dynamic terminal sliding mode controller is formulated based on Lyapunov theory such that the existence of the sliding phase of the closed-loop control system can be guaranteed, chattering phenomenon caused by the switching control action can be eliminated, and high precision performance is realized. Moreover, by designing terminal equation, the output tracking error converges to zero in finite time, the reaching phase of DSMC is eliminated and global robustness is obtained. The simulation results for an inverted pendulum are given to demonstrate the properties of the proposed method.

Chattering free adaptive fuzzy terminal sliding mode control for second order nonlinear system

A novel fuzzy terminal sliding mode control （FTSMC） scheme is proposed for position tracking of a class of second-order nonlinear uncertain system. In the proposed scheme, we integrate input-output linearization technique to cancel the nonlinearities. By using a function-augmented sliding hyperplane, it is guaranteed that the output tracking error converges to zero in finite time which can be set arbitrarily. The proposed scheme eliminates reaching phase problem, so that the closed-loop system always shows invariance property to parameter uncertainties. Fuzzy logic systems are used to approximate the unknown system functions and switch item. Robust adaptive law is proposed to reduce approximation errors between true nonlinear functions and fuzzy systems, thus chattering phenomenon can be eliminated. Stability of the proposed control scheme is proved and the scheme is applied to an inverted pendulum system. Simulation studies are provided to confirm performance and effectiveness of the proposed control approach.

A Robust Adaptive Terminal Sliding Mode Control for Rigid Robotic Manipulators

In this paper, a robust adaptive terminal sliding mode controller is developed for n-link rigid robotic manipulators with uncertain dynamics. An MIMO terminal sliding mode is defined for the error dynamics of a closed loop robot control system, and an adaptive mechanism is introduced to estimate the unknown parameters of the upper bounds of system uncertainties in the Lyapunov sense. The estimates are then used as controller parameters so that the effects of uncertain dynamics can be eliminated and a finite time error convergence in the terminal sliding mode can be guaranteed. Also, a useful bounded property of the derivative of the inertial matrix is explored, the convergence rate of the terminal sliding variable vector is investigated, and an experiment using a five bar robotic manipulator is carried out in support of the proposed control scheme.

Second-order terminal sliding mode control for hypersonic vehicle in cruising flight with sliding mode disturbance observer

This paper focuses on the design of nonlinear robust controller and disturbance observer for the longitudinal dynamics of a hypersonic vehicle (HSV) in the presence of parameter uncertainties and external disturbances. First, by combining terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) and second-order sliding mode control (SOSMC) approach, the secondorder terminal sliding control (2TSMC) is proposed for the velocity and altitude tracking control of the HSV. The 2TSMC possesses the merits of both TSMC and SOSMC, which can provide fast convergence, continuous control law and hightracking precision. Then, in order to increase the robustness of the control system and improve the control performance, the sliding mode disturbance observer (SMDO) is presented. The closed-loop stability is analyzed using the Lyapunov technique. Finally, simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, as well as the improved overall performance over the conventional sliding mode control (SMC).

High‐order sliding mode control design based on adaptive terminal sliding mode

High‐order sliding mode control techniques are proposed for uncertain nonlinear SISO systems with bounded uncertainties based on two different terminal sliding mode approaches. The tracking error of the output converges to zero in finite time by designing a terminal sliding mode controller. In addition, the adaptive control method is employed to identify bounded uncertainties for eliminating the requirement of boundaries needed in the conventional design. The controllers are derived using Lyapunov theory, so the stability of the closed‐loop system is guaranteed. In the first technique, the developed procedure removes the reaching phase of sliding mode and realizes global robustness. The proposed algorithms ensure establishment of high‐order sliding mode. An illustrative example of a car control demonstrates effectiveness of the presented designs. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Second Order Sliding Mode Control for Robot Arms with Time Base Generators for Finite-Time Tracking

A novel chattering-free dynamic sliding mode controller for a class of uncertain mechanical systems is proposed in order to account globally for a time-varying sliding regime for all time and for any initial condition. The new sliding surface, parametrized by a time base generator, plays the role of moving, and rotating continuously the nominal sliding surface, while shifting is done through a known, state-independent, vanishing vector to eliminate the reaching phase for any initial condition, a weaker assumption in comparison to some moving sliding surface designs. In this way, the closed-loop system yields finite-time convergence of tracking errors, whose convergence time can be fixed independently of initial conditions, in contrast to terminal sliding mode wherein convergence time depends on initial conditions. To implement the controller, the upper bound of the derivative of the sliding surface is required, a weaker assumption in contrast to some dynamic sliding mode controllers. The performance of the closed-loop system is visualized through simulation.

Improving asynchronous motor speed and flux loop control by using hybrid fuzzy-SMC controllers

This paper presents a new method combining sliding mode control (SMC) and fuzzy logic control (FLC) to enhance the robustness and performance for a class of non-linear control systems. This fuzzy sliding mode control (FSMC) is developed for application in the area for controlling the speed and flux loops of asynchronous motors. The proposed control law can solve those problems associated with the conventional control by sliding mode control, such as high current, flux and torque chattering, variable switching frequency and variation of parameters, in which a robust fuzzy logic controller replaces the discontinuous part of the classical sliding mode control law. Simulation results of the proposed FSMC technique on the speed and flux rotor controllers present good dynamic and steady-state performances compared to the classical SMC in terms of reduction of the torque chattering, quick dynamic torque response and robustness to disturbance and variation of parameters.     

Adaptive sliding mode trajectory tracking control for wheeled mobile robots

This paper discusses the problem of adaptive sliding mode trajectory tracking control for wheeled mobile robots in the presence of external disturbances and inertia uncertainties. A new fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode surface without any constraint is proposed, which not only avoids singularity, but also retains the advantages of sliding mode control. In order to implement the trajectory tracking mission, the error dynamic system is divided into a second-order subsystem and a third-order one. First, an adaptive fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode control law of the angular velocity is constructed for stabilising the second-order subsystem in finite time. Then, another adaptive fast nonsingular terminal sliding mode control law of the linear velocity is designed to guarantee the stability of the third-order subsystem. Finally, a simulation example is provided to demonstrate the validity of the proposed control scheme.

A new non‐linear sliding‐mode torque and flux control method for an induction machine incorporating a sliding‐mode flux observer

In this paper a novel sliding‐mode control algorithm, based on the differential geometry state‐co‐ordinates transformation method, is proposed to control motor torque directly. Non‐linear feedback linearization theory is employed to decouple the control of rotor flux magnitude and motor torque. The advantages of this method are: (1) The rotor flux and the generated torque can be accurately controlled. (2) Robustness with respect to matched and mismatched uncertainties is obtained. Additionally, a varying continuous control term is proposed. As a result, chattering is eliminated without sacrificing robustness and precision. The control strategy is based on all motor states being available. In practice the rotor fluxes are not usually measurable, and a sliding‐mode observer is derived to estimate the rotor flux. The observer is designed to possess invariant dynamic modes which can be assigned independently to achieve the desired performance. Furthermore, it can be shown that the observer is robust against model uncertainties and measurement noise. Simulation and practical results are presented to confirm the characteristics of the proposed control law and rotor flux observer. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Adaptive Nonsingular Terminal Sliding Mode Control Design for Near Space Hypersonic Vehicles

This paper presents an adaptive nonsingular terminal sliding mode approach for the attitude control of near space hypersonic vehicles (NSHV) in the presence of parameter uncertainties and external disturbances. Firstly, a novel nonsingular terminal sliding surface is developed and its finitetime convergence is analyzed. Then, an adaptive nonsingular terminal sliding mode control law is proposed, which is chattering free. In the proposed approach, all parameter uncertainties and external disturbances are lumped into one term, which is estimated by an adaptive uncertainty estimation for eliminating the boundary requirement needed in the conventional control design. Subsequently, stability of the closed-loop system is proven based on Lyapunov theory. Finally, the proposed approach is applied to the attitude control design for NSHV. Simulation results show that the proposed approach attains a satisfactory performance in the presence of parameter uncertainties and external disturbances.      

Chattering‐free sliding mode control for a class of nonlinear mechanical systems

Second‐order sliding mode control (2‐smc) and dynamic sliding mode control (dsmc) eliminate the disturbing characteristic of chattering in static sliding mode control under the assumption that the derivative of the sliding surface is available or complex inequalities at the acceleration level can be constructed. In this paper, passivity‐based adaptive and non‐adaptive chattering‐free sliding mode controllers are proposed assuming that the upper bound of the norm of the derivative of the sliding surface is available, a weaker and easy to implement assumption in comparison to those of 2‐smc and dsmc. The closed‐loop system accounts explicitly for the invariance condition without reaching phase, and therefore for a desired transient response with global exponential convergence of tracking errors. Preliminary experiments are presented. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
