Intelligent Sliding Mode Control in Flexible Structures

Control of a Lightweight Flexible Robotic Arm Using Sliding Modes

This paper presents a robust control scheme for flexible link robotic manipulators, which is based on considering the flexible mechanical structure as a system with slow (rigid) and fast (flexible) modes that can be controlled separately. The rigid dynamics is controlled by means of a robust sliding-mode approach with wellestablished stability properties while an LQR optimal design is adopted f...

Pid Sliding Mode Control of Prolate Flexible Pneumatic Actuators

The inherent compliance, high power-density, and musclelike properties of soft actuators are especially attractive and useful in many applications, including robotics. In comparison to classical/modern control approaches, model-based control techniques, e.g., sliding mode control (SMC), applied to flexible fluidic actuators (FFAs) offer significant performance advantages and are considered to b...

Sliding Mode Control Of Two Arms Manipulating a Flexible Beam

This paper develops a sliding mode control law to control two robotic arms handling a flexible beam that is modeled using B-spline approximation. Simulation results for two three joint arms moving a flexible beam are presented to validate the theoretical results.
