This article presents a fuzzy sliding-mode control scheme for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy which are subject to norm-bounded uncertainties in each subsystem. The proposed stabilization method can be adopted to explore T-S uncertain fuzzy systems (TSUFS) with various local control inputs. Firstly, a new design is proposed to transform TSUFS into sliding-mode dynamic systems.In addi...

The paper deals with the basic concepts, mathematics, and design aspects of variable structure systems as well as sliding modes as a principle operation mode. The main arguments in favor of sliding mode control are order reduction, decoupling design procedure, disturbance rejection, insensitivity to parameter variations, and simple implementation by means of power converters. The control algori...

Sliding mode is used in order to retain a dynamic system accurately at a given constraint and is the main operation mode in variable structure systems. Such mode is a motion on a discontinuity set of a dynamic system and features theoretically-infinite-frequency switching. The standard sliding modes are known to feature finite time convergence, precise keeping of the constraint and robustness w...
