Longitudinal Vehicle Control by Sliding Mode Theory

Robust Integral Sliding-Mode Control of an Aerospace Launch Vehicle

An analysis of on-line autonomous robust tracking controller based on variable structure control is presented for an aerospace launch vehicle. Decentralized sliding-mode controller is designed to achieve the decoupled asymptotic tracking of guidance commands upon plant uncertainties and external disturbances. Development and application of the controller for an aerospace launch vehicle during a...

Adaptive Sliding Mode Control of Vehicle Traction

In this paper we present a sliding mode based vehicle control strategy, which includes anti-lock braking and anti-spin acceleration. This strategy uses the slip velocity as controlled variable instead of wheel slip. The sliding mode control is integrated with an adaptation process for the unknown and varying adhesion coefcient of the tire/road interface. The proposed control method is veried ...

Discrete-time sliding mode control for MR vehicle suspension system

Real-time control of an automated guided vehicle using a continuous mode of sliding mode control

Abstract: This paper proposes a tracking control method for a certain type of differential-drive wheeled mobile robot, called automated guided vehicles (AGVs), using a continuous mode approach of sliding mode control (SMC). The SMC applied produces a continuous signal in between the U and –U control signals instead of discrete ones. The controller is applied to control the velocity and directio...

Robust control by fuzzy sliding mode

Abstrae1-Most fuzzy controllers (FCs) for nonlinear second order systems are designed with a two-dimensional phase plane in mind. We show that the performance and the robustness of this kind of FC stems from their property of driving the system into the sliding mode (SM), in which the controlled system is invariant to parameter fluctuations and disturbances. Additionally, the continuous distrib...
